Emily Place Neighbour's Day Event at Emily Reserve
Live around Emily Place? Neighbours Day Aotearoa 2020 (well 'week' actually) 27 March to 5 April, is approaching
- it can be hard to meet your neighbours in your building, let alone in the immediate area. Here is your chance!
The Aaiotanga Peace Place in Emily Place, is hosting a Neighbours Day event in the City Centre's gorgeous Emily Place Reserve on Sun 29 March 3-6pm.
This is an afternoon event of music, story-telling, bean bags and a biscuit bake-off - & general relax & chat with your neighbours, making use of the beautiful and historic Emily Reserve, also known as Te Rerenga ora iti and the Peace Place community space itself.
It's part of a NZ-wide campaign encouraging us all to connect with our neighbours and celebrate our neighbourhoods.
Also thanks to Waitematā Local Board.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
