Home Reserve Playground on the corner of Home Street and King Street in Grey Lynn will be temporarily closed from 1st October 2020 to mid December 2020 while upgrade works are being undertaken.

Waitematā Local Board is proud to be delivering the Home Reserve Upgrade Project. During this time, we encourage you to visit nearby playgrounds, including: Grey Lynn Park, Nixon Park and Western Park.

From the week beginning 28th September 2020, there will be no access into the park from either Home Street or King Street entrances, whilst the works are underway.

The construction works are scheduled to commence Thursday 1st October 2020 and are expected to be complete by mid December 2020 or earlier if practical. The contractor engaged to undertake the works on behalf of Auckland Council is Ventia.

The works will include removal of the existing playground, earthworks, installation of furniture, playground edging and surface, pathway renewal and half court line marking. The existing overgrown vegetation will be replaced with a mix of low growing native species designed to attract birds and insects.

During the works, the contractors will be using digging equipment and transporting material into the Reserve from Home Street entrance. There may be some noise during working hours (7.30am – 5pm, Monday – Friday), but the contractors will aim to keep this to a minimum.

We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and will make all effort to minimise disruption.

If you have any questions about these planned works, please contact waitematalocalboard@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz

Coronavirus is more of a reason to sort out the stadium

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Neighbours, It's easy to say things shouldn't be done because we need to focus on Covid-19 elimination, but maybe that's more of an argument to sort out the stadium plan. Read the story below.

Many thanks, Andi.

Some of you may have read our previous notice weeks ago trying to rehouse our dog Nala. After finding what we thought was the perfect new home for her we discovered instantly she is not suited to be with small children, her behaviour became unpredictable, she’s just not used to loud noise and quick movements of small children, so we’re trying again. Sadly we need to rehome our dog Nala. Due to suddenly having too move house we are unable to take Nala with us
. Nala is a 2.5 year old Staffie X Pitbull she is de-sexed with up to date vaccinations. Our baby Nala is a sweet, gentle natured Girl who is toilet trained and knows all her basic commands around the house however, she tends to have her ears painted on when she gets outside. Nala can be quite timid/nervous around other dogs but with monitored introduction she’d be happy to make friends. Nala is very playful and friendly and loves attention. We’ve discovered that Nala is not good around small, young children and is better suited to older children and adults. Nala is a bit of an escape artist, left alone she can jump a 7ft+ fence. Nala’s always excited to see people and tends to jump up on people to greet them and she’s incredibly strong. She needs a firm hand. She needs a lot of exercise and a good off lead run. Nala is a really quiet indoor dog, a great companion who’s really happy to just hang and be a couch potato.

Many thanks, Andi

🌟 YAY! 🌟 Auckland is moving down to Level 2 just in time for the October school holidays and our Super Spring holiday programme 🥳

It's been a long term (and year!) for our kids so we can't wait to give them and awesome October holidays so they can relax and have fun with their friends.

Our programme is designed to be as convenient as possible for busy parents with two Central Auckland drop-off points, long hours at no extra charge, plus you can also sign your kids up for as many or as few days as you need.

We also offer two different options every day so you can pick the activities that best suit your kids and family. 💖

To sign up for our Super Spring holiday programme or get some more info, visit our website at www.parnell.org.nz...

Please get your enrolments in early!

Like many local businesses, going into lockdown has been difficult for us financially. Because of this, our holiday programme activities have minimum enrolment numbers that we need to meet before they can go ahead.

Please help us by enroling your children early to secure their spot and ensure your kid's favourite activities go ahead.

📝 Note for parents:

During then unpredictable and unprecedented times, the health and safety of kids in our care is our number one priority. We have put special precautions in place to ensure the health and safety of our kids and our staff.
