This video will give you some insight on two Mayoral candidates and gives insight on Phil Goff as he did not want to talk about our pets. This is more information to consider.

Ahoy ye families!

Grab a torch and join our adventurers and suffer a sailor’s life on-board, as we navigate the southern oceans with Cook and company.

It’s going to be all hands on deck as you learn how to behave in His Majesty’s Royal Navy – avoid the dreaded cat o’ nine tails and sample some delightful 18th century naval food. Mmmm, pease porridge, anyone?

Discover stories and traditions of tangata whenua as encountered by that first bewildered bunch of seafarers. And how do you communicate if you don’t speak the same language? Try to dodge muddles and mix-ups once we reach the Pacific.

● TUE 1, WED 2, THU 3, SUN 6, FRI 11 & SUN 13 OCT, 6PM - 8.30PM​

F Van Heerden

“Thank you so much Tim. It has been such an blessing to have the extra space to sort my life out at an extremely affordable price. Lovely, big, clean, dry and handy container, which I could load straight from car/trailer into my container, made the process fast and efficient. Felt like part of the family, safe and secure. Thank you again. Ta kime.”

The storage containers are clean, tidy and easy to access as you can park right outside them. Tim has been such a pleasure to deal with, he is always happy to accommodate our requests and provides a service above and beyond what we expected. Would highly recommend Storeit4less to anyone needing short or long term storage for personal or business use”.
