What do you make of this purchase?
Those involved in ploughing $1.6m in ratepayer cash into a property in Te Aroha which can’t be used for its intended purpose and is unlikely to be sold without taking a loss are defending their decision.

Have you tried this cafe?
Ethos Cafe isn’t just serving food - it’s rethinking the entire food system. From growing its own produce to composting kitchen waste back into the soil, this cafe is closing the loop, one plate at a time.

The schools currently have permanent 30kph limits but the Government has ordered a change as part of its push-back on speed limits lowered over the past few years.
