Parks and Recreation manager Sue Hodge says “It seemed logical to use some of the water which goes through multiple treatment processes at the treatment plant and goes into the wetlands every day. Using a bit of it to water our fields, trees and gardens will make no difference to the ecology of the wetlands, but will make a big difference to the District’s fields, trees and gardens."
“We make a big investment in fields every year. They are very important to the community, especially with the winter sports season coming up and we want to look after them as well as we can."

Showcasing their passion for life, Ryman residents from New Zealand and Australia feature in the film. Let’s meet the stars.
“If I hear music, I just want to dance – body seems to just move!” says dancer Audrey, 84. Poet Brian, 86, says “Poetry helps me to question and understand the meaning of life”, followed by a witty “– haven’t worked out what it means yet”.
As their residents blaze their own trails, Ryman matches that pioneering spirit. “Ryman villages offer living choices to suit everyone so that you can live the way you want.”

Now, upskilling, online courses and on-the-job training are all part of making your way up the career ladder.
We want to talk to people who have completed micro-credentials, bitesize qualifications for specific skills.
Perhaps you've pieced together a full qualification by doing online courses, or maybe you've taken a workshop rather than investing in a six-month course. We'd love to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

You might see arborists on site removing vegetation (including some mangrove trees) to clear the channels. This will allow water to flow more easily to sea, meaning the grounds will be drier and less prone to flooding.
Why is this work required?
Self-propagating vegetation such as mangroves establish root and branch systems within the drain passage. As these roots grow bigger they affect the flow dynamics within the drain and allow silt and sediment to settle more readily instead of being discharged to sea as would naturally occur. These deposits built up over time and in effect create more area for root growth. Eventually the capacity of the drain is reduced, posing flooding risks to neighbouring property.
The unwanted material will be removed by arborists in the first stage, then diggers will be sent in to clear out the silt and sludge.
The Ngunguru Sports Complex and Golf Course have been notified separately.
