Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week.

Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.

We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!

Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.

One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.

What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?
