We are excited to be expanding our Summer League for Term 4 to include Year 1&2 Junior Netball and Senior Walking Netball, as well as our existing Year 3-8 Junior Netball, College and Senior Netball (adult) grades.

Walking Netball is a modified form of the game with no running or jumping so it's perfect for those returning to exercise after a break or injury.

This term we are also trialling a new 'Open' grade with no restrictions on gender balance within teams to replace our College Mixed and Senior Mixed grades. You just need 7 players to make up an Open team.

More details below:

- 8-week league from 23/24 October to 11/12 December
- Wednesday afternoons/evenings @ Windmill Park Mount Eden
- Thursday afternoons/evenings @ St Johns
- Team and individual entry available for all grades

Acclaimed for virtuosic playing, brilliant arrangements, and innovative stage presentation, Calefax is a classical ensemble with a pop mentality.

The programme features a blend of classical compositions that will transport you through time and across cultures. From the intricate harmonies of Bach’s Baroque masterpiece to Schubert’s Romantic lyricism, and the jazzy rhythms of Gershwin’s iconic ‘An American in Paris’. Calefax, hailing from the Netherlands, are thrilled to be performing the world premiere of a newly CMNZ-commissioned work from award-winning New Zealand composer Rosie Langabeer.

When seconds count, it can save lives.

We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.

Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.
