Kidsfirst Kindergartens are better because…
We have great big backyards filled with real trees, actual grass, places to run, hide and explore, butterflies and happy children. That’s part of what makes kindergarten so special. Plus there are smaller class sizes that better suit our smaller learners, trained teachers who see each child as someone special and structure their learning to the pace of the child, strong cultural emphasis and a commitment to quality early childhood education. All with up to 30 hours free each week.
Visit our website to find a kindy or for more information, to put your name on the waitlist or enrol.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
