Major track upgrades launched: Mangere Mountain
The track to Mangere Mountain's summit is getting a facelift.
It will be recreated with aggregate stone paths, basalt rock steps and rest areas with seating at key viewing areas.
A floating staircase will be built on the steeper northern descent from the south Auckland summit which is prone to erosion from foot traffic.
Work begins on May 17 and is expected to take five months to bring to fruition.
The goal is to preserve historic pa features and provide a safer, enhanced experience for pedestrians.
Also planned is a major redevelopment of the playground.
Inspired by the landscape, the design will reflect stories associated with the mountain and Maori culture.
A $1 million budget has been earmarked for the playground.
More details will be released later.

Feeding chickens
Hi there, we are going away for the first week of the upcoming school holidays and looking for someone to feed our 2 backyard chickens while we are gone. Is there anyone out there able to help with this? Could be a good way for a young one to earn a bit of holiday pocket money perhaps?
We will provide all the food required, and it only takes about 5mins a day. Plus you’d be welcome to keep the eggs they lay each day for that time too.
Please DM me for more details if you’re interested in helping us out
