Mayday Rally for Travel Justice

Elizabeth from Maitai

There is a climate crisis
There is a fuel crisis
This is the tipping point
We want to walk and cycle whenever possible, but its not safe. Cars have grown in size, speed and number.
Many parents are afraid to let their children walk or cycle - adding to the dangerous traffic congestion around school entrances.

What needs to change for us to feel safe?


We need a fairer allocation of space on our streets as we address the climate and fuel crises
Lets Rally for Travel Justice
Sunday May 1 at 1pm gather at the I-site
Walk/Cycle to Church steps for 1.30

Bring details of your 'black spots' and we'll record them on a map at the Church Steps.
We'll take the map to Council asking for the infrastructure changes we need.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
