Bishopdale Plunket – Story Times

Community Development Worker from Bishopdale Community Trust

Bishopdale's newest playgroup is all about babies and toddlers being exposed to books.

Books which allow your baby / toddler the opportunity to explore by touch, viewing and also hearing the story being read to them.

At the beginning of each session a book especially hand-picked each week will be read to the group then parents are invited to relax and enjoy the space.

We have allocated a safe and secured spot on the deck which is fenced at Ōrauwhata: Bishopdale Library.

If weather is a bit cold, we will move the group inside. Families are invited to bring their morning tea to enjoy in the outdoor space.

Starting – Monday 22nd February, 10am – 11am, Ōrauwhata: Bishopdale Library.

For more information, please contact – Babs Sutherland at babs.sutherland@plunket.org.nz

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
