REMINDER: Annual Matariki Multicultural Tree Planting, Sat 6 July, 10:30-1:30am

todd from EarthDiverse

Just a quick reminder:
ANNUAL MATARIKI MULTICULTURAL TREE PLANTING!
Saturday 6 July 2024, 10:30am-1:30pm.

WHERE: Waiwhakareke Natural Heritage Park, Baverstock Road gate, on the way to the Hamilton Zoo. Please note that this is an updated gate entrance (as we will no longer enter the park from the Rotokauri Rd gate, as previously advertised).

Bring a spade, water, gardening gloves and your gumboots! (we may have some extra spades available).

This event is free, family-friendly, and fun! Bring the family, plant some saplings, and have some food (light lunch and hot drinks provided). Help offset your carbon usage and plant some tree for our City Council in the awesome Waiwhakareke!

Are you following the water charge discussions at Hamilton City Council?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton city councillors have taken tangible steps towards a new water regime that will see a charge based on their property’s capital valuation in their rates bill for the first time next year.

The council voted unanimously on Thursday on a series of direction-setting decisions in relation to the 2024-2034 Long-Term Plan Amendments.
