Auckland’s landmarks will be the stars of the New Year’s Eve show again this year, with the Sky Tower and Vector Lights on the Harbour Bridge set to bring in the new year with spectacular shows coordinated with Tāmaki Paenga Hira Auckland Museum and Te Ara I Whiti The Light Path.
Hi Neighbours, 2020 - well it's all been said really hasn't it. Auckland has had a double-dose of the hardest part of Covid-19, with two big restrictions. But what a response from you all. My thoughts are below:

What do you think is the solution for the significant number of ducks falling ill and getting injured in New Lynn?

Summer daytrips out of Auckland always seem like a great plan until you’re trapped in a sticky motorway crawl, with thousands of other people who had the same bright idea.
But swap your roadie for a ferry and you’ll gain time, save petrol, and get sweet views from the water to boot.

But swap your roadie for a ferry and you’ll gain time, save petrol, and get sweet views from the water to boot.
Rangitoto and Waiheke might be the obvious island destinations, but there are plenty more places you can explore via the water.
Read on to find out more.
Buh-bye and good riddance, 2020!
This last year was an absolute appealing year for so many of us.
So, for this up and coming new year, here's an idea that maybe you or your children could do.
Fill an empty clean jar with notes about good things that happen to you throughout the year.

This last year was an absolute appealing year for so many of us.
So, for this up and coming new year, here's an idea that maybe you or your children could do.
Fill an empty clean jar with notes about good things that happen to you throughout the year.
Then on New Year's eve, open the jar and read all of those wonderful memories that happened to you over the last 12 months.
You'll be pleasantly surprised.
A new year is on the way and the possibilities are endless.
May your New Year be filled with love, laughter, peace and joy but above all that, may your New Year be filled with good health.
✨✨✨A very Happy New Year to one and all✨✨✨
Hi neighbours. We're still being asked to conserve water after one of the driest years on record.

Following a dry 2019, the region saw a record 40 days with no rain in January and February, paving the way for water restrictions that would continue into December.
Despite the restrictions and Aucklanders being the most efficient water users in New Zealand, the dam levels are still low and Watercare is asking everyone to try and save 20 litres per day.
We’ve put together a list of easy ways you can save water around your home, as well as a few ideas for if you’re willing to go the extra mile.

Puweto, or the small dark coloured rails, live in freshwater wetlands scattered throughout the country, with their largest populations in the North Island.
The Matuku Link is a 37 hectare native forest block in west Auckland's Bethell's Valley.
The reserve connects many protected areas including Ark in the Park, Habitat Te Henga, Forrest Ridge and Matuku Reserve.
Staff from the zoo and Matuku Link joined volunteers to search for the birds in Bethells wetlands.
The presence of small dark coloured rails in a particular wetland signals the overall health of the ecosystem.
But more than 90 per cent of New Zealand's wetland areas have been drained and cleared for agriculture which has yielded a major impact on all species.
Puweto need vegetation such as raupo and kuta in which to forage and nest.
Surveyors used a recorded sound of the birds' calls to aid monitoring.
They saw two puweto and netted 13 call responses at 38 listening posts.
