A brilliant morning@Glenfield Library
What a brilliant morning we have had at our library today.
Our beloved local author Yvonne Tusha shared her heartfelt journey of writing her two books, and lead the group to practise some of her favorite waiata.
The people from Glenfield Specsavers did a wonderful presentation about how to protect your hearing, followed by a free hearing test for the community.

Plastic beach rubbish
Two recent emus on Takapuna beach. One lithium battery picked up from the edge of the deck of the Harbour Bridge during the recent Hikoi. My guess is the other half is sitting at the bottom of the Waitemata Harbour.
