This amazing new motorway provides a safer, stronger and more reliable route for people and freight in and out of Wellington. And because it’s engineered to the highest standards, it can cope with the weather, storms and earthquakes we get in this region.

It’s an incredible piece infrastructure, and we can’t wait for you to experience it.
A heads-up, if you’re heading south don’t forget that Paekākāriki is the last exit for 15km – that’s a long detour if you miss your exit!

Are you looking forward to using Transmission Gully? The new motorway is scheduled to open to motorists on Thursday, it is understood this will be at 3am.
Hi neighbours, the next recycling day will be on Saturday, 2th April, at 10am to noon, as planned. We will still set up our collection buckets on the outside the church. Hope the weather will be nice. It was a fresh experience to have the recycle items on the care which was like a garage sale.

Hope the weather will be nice. It was a fresh experience to have the recycle items on the care which was like a garage sale.
Here is a reminder that we can only take lids which are stamped with number 2 and 5 from now on. These must be separated. we now have separate buckets for each plastic type. We do suggest that your items are sorted at home before coming.
Also, it's amazing that our collections have been used to make lovely things, such as the pot shown below in the picture which are 100% made of recycling plastics. It just feels encouraged to continue our recycling event.
What we are recycling, pls check here: ngaio.org.nz...
Thank you for all the support. We will see you on Saturday.
My water blaster is not working and I need it urgently this week.
Is anyone kindly lent me for one day?
Perhaps someone would like to water blaster my property this week and I will pay for the job. Please contact me if interested. Thanks Shirley

Mōrena Pōneke.
Just a reminder that glass collections are still paused as several of our waste collection contractors are unwell with COVID-19.
In the meantime, residents can either stockpile their glass or drop it off for free at the Recycling Station at the Southern Landfill.

Rubbish and co-mingled recycling are being collected as usual for now – but some co-mingled items may go to Landfill depending on staff capacity at the sorting plant on the day.
In the meantime, if you want to ensure all your glass collection is processed, you can drop it at our Recycle Centre, or stockpile until we are back to full capacity
We apologise for this disruption. Our thoughts are with our contractors and we wish them a speedy recovery.

"Hey, I'm Cruise and like my name suggests, I am a very chill dude who is happy to make friends with both humans and dogs. I am confident, curious and full of beans when I'm not by your side or enjoying some zzz's. I would make the ultimate exploring companion for the outdoorsy type and I am bound to keep you on your toes with activities all year round. Still being an eager young lad, I have been learning how to walk nicely on lead and how to stick close off lead for some excellent hiking adventures. I thrive with the company of other dogs and am wanting a canine brother or sister to go home to as I don't want to be left alone for the day. I'm not suitable for a home with young kids but I love to meet all sorts of people. Unfortunately I'm not able to go to a home with cats or small animals. I'd make a great family dog or a companion for a solo owner. I am a boy who loves to cuddle up against you and enjoys going on outdoor adventures with you and your existing dog."

The $1.25b project has missed five deadlines, prompting Waka Kotahi to take the “unusual” step of issuing a formal direction to contractor Wellington Gateway Partnership (WGP) to open the road by the end of March.
A specific date and time has not been given, Brett Gliddon, Waka Kotahi’s general manager transport services, said “nothing substantial” could prevent the road from opening by the end of March.

We’ve just dug out a load of flax, it should take off if replanted. Seems a shame to send it to the dump!

We can thank Pete Seeger for the song and Louise Thomas for the picture, and description of a black fronted tern.
"Continuing on with the rare terns that have been randomly turning (terning) up on the Kāpiti Coast, this is a juvenile black-fronted tern/tarapirohe (Chlidonias albostriatus) - a bit of a standout among the white-fronted terns because of the orange legs (and smaller body). As he gets older his beak will turn orange too. In breeding plumage the cap goes black all the way to the bill. They are apparently reasonably common in the South Island and have often been recorded wintering around Wellington, but this is my first time spotting one. Plimmerton on Sunday. Bird #61 in 2022."
