The Community Van was initiated with the aim to enable local organisations with few or no transport alternatives, greater access to services and events within the Auckland region.
While the Community Van's most common use is to transport people to access their shopping, it also provides groups with an opportunity to extend their program options at an affordable cost.
Past trips made by not-for-profit groups have included bowling and ice cream trips, visits to the theatre , the New Zealand Martime Museum, Howick Historical Village and the Auckland Botanic Gardens.
Since MECOSS began this service in May 2021, the Community Van has transported 100s of local residents and travelled over 1000 kilometers' within Auckland's boundary.
Demand continues to grow with over 6 different organisation's having taken advantage of this community resource.
For more information about booking the Community Van for group outings going-forward-from and including COVID-19 Alert Level 2, please contact MECOSS.

European Medieval dances as depicted in Nicolas Poussin's (1634) painting, Dance to the Music of Life, were once popular among common and wealthy classes.
As time went by, during the Renaissance, a lot of new dances were created. The waltz started in the mid-19th century and became very popular. The English Queen Victoria fell in-love with waltz and it has been loved in the UK since her era.
Ballet originated in the Italian Renaissance Courts and was widely funded by the wife of King Henry II of France. Later on, ballet became popular in France. Ballet and its popularity continued to spread around the world and it was eventually loved in Russia in the nineteenth century. Popular ballet acts such as The Swan Lake, The Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty were all created in Russia.
Tango is deep rooted and was first danced in Europe before the First World War. Often, you can see the symbol of a cat stalking its prey as a signature move in tango. Today, tango sits a throne in ballroom dance rooms and people adore it!
Rumba is associated with fun and parties. Rumba's first big influence can be tracked back in the 16th century. This type of dance is loved for its vigorous, expressive movements along with the lively tune from drums, maracas and other percussion.
Enter the 1970s, the time when hip hop began to move its groove. Sometimes called street dancing, hip hop has become an evolving culture with various styles like breaking, popping and locking. The modern world, specifically youth, have continued to adopt hip hop.
The history of dance is surely more than what ancient books or cave walls can depict. Whatever or wherever the first dance was on Earth, it since has come a long way. Whoever it was to have created the very first dance -- that is something we may never know. There is something about great dancers that will fascinate you. They are disciplined and perfectionists. With their routines, they are on their peaked motor fitness, have strong endurance and outstanding muscular strength. They are agile, flexible and well-coordinated.
Dance Yourself Happy is not disciplined! Its a body shaking, foot stomping, unstructured disco style event. It's purely for fun! These free sessions especially designed by Mari Pettersson for the community, offer a lot of health benefits as well - from weight management to cognitive improvements and even in building better social skills.
A Dance Yourself Happy session helps to strengthen the heart and lungs and building stronger bones and reduces the risk of osteoporosis. What’s more fascinating is that everyone can dance. Don’t say you can’t dance because everybody can!
See you back in COVID-19 Alert Level 2.

This is owned by us the community that live it the Mt Wellington Licensing Trust area.
I would like the Chief Executive Brent Robinson & the 6 elected board members (elected by us the community every 3 years ) to explain how this has been allowed to happen.
Here a few of the complaints.
1/ Dirt smeared on the telephone.
2/ Weeks of dust build- up in the grates of the fan and the back of the TV
3/ Food was awful most of the meals where inedible and arrived cold.
4/ Spiders in the shower and hole in the wall that ants trailed through into the bathroom.
5/ Room not vacuumed properly
Would you pay $3100.00 for this 2 week experience????
From what I read into this the Hotel is going to rack & ruin and will be worthless to us the community.
The CE & the 6 elected board members need to be held accountable as they are the caretakers to protect our biggest asset.
Thank goodness there is another election next year.
Please give some consideration to stand as a board member to protect our asset as clearly these people are NOT

Ginge (Male) and Blackie (Female)
Both cats have been well loved and spoilt and as such deserve to find the same in their new forever home. My Uncle has recently gone into care therefore re-homing them into loving homes either together or seperate of one another is my priority. Blackie is the elder of the two and is very affectionate with an adorable personality and a cute squeak when she greets you. Ginge is a bit more independent however still enjoys a cuddle and pat. Their home is currently in Army Bay, Whangaparaoa and each kitty will come with a supply of food, flea treatment and a vet check (in Level 3). I would love to take them however we have two dogs and they are on the timid side in new situations. My thoughts and preference would be a home that has no dogs unless they are ambivalent towards cats.
