Hi neighbours,

Some Papakura residents are so frustrated about their bin tags being swiped off their rubbish bins, they're coming up with some pretty creative ways to deter thieves. The pay-as-you-throw tags were introduced by Auckland Council in Papakura and west Auckland earlier this year and range from between $2.60- $5.50 a bin. To read more, click here.

Although the bin tags aren't city-wide, it got us wondering what other rubbish-bin issues were out there? Has your bin been stolen before? Do people fill your bins with their rubbish and recycling? Have you had lids or wheels broken off them? What extreme measures have you taken to make sure your rubbish gets collected? Let us know in the replies.

Yoga with Cheryl Hamilton!

➡️ Starting 1st November

➡️ 6 x 1hr sessions
Thursday nights 5:30pm - 6:30pm

✅ Price:

$120.00 - Member Price (Non-Member also welcome*)

A mix of restorative, flow and Hatha yoga.

This 6 week block of Yoga is a winning combination of expert tuition and invigorating classes to both strengthen and calm both body and mind.

There’s a real sense of community at the Hobsonville gym and the yoga classes are no different - a fact evident from the feeling of encouragement and ease you feel from the first class. With a very personable approach from expert yoga teacher Cheryl Hamilton, all pretension is left at the door to provide classes that encourage rather than intimidate to make strengthening and stretching that much more appealing. Cheryl will guide you through the yoga practice and provide variations to any of the yoga poses, but it does pay to have done yoga before.

➡️ Registration is in the Club entrance.
(12 spots available)

* You are most welcome if you are not our member, we charge a different rate for block of 6 sessions, please visit our club at 124 Hobsonville Road, Hobsonville or call us on 09 416 0211 during our staffed hours.
