Hi neighbours,
The National Road Carriers Association recently put a call out on its Facebook page for people to start sending them photos of potholed and cracked highways.
They want to show the Government how poor local roads really are.
So are there any roads around our region in need of fixing?

Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, nationalities, ages, orientations and even genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.
There’s many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck where each attendee brings a dish from a country of their choice to coordinating a fundraiser that benefits refugees or our elderly there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their native language or ensuring local footpaths are accessible!
Don’t forget this month also coincides with Women’s Refugee Awareness Month and International Day of Friendship on July 30th - a United Nations day that promotes the role that friendship plays in promoting peace in many cultures.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re making your community more inclusive this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

Hunting dogs are going back to school in Opotiki and their higher qualifications are helping save Kiwi and dollars for their owners.
Opotiki District Council passed a resolution in April to allow hunting dogs who undertake "avian aversion training" classes to be classified as working dogs which reduces the cost of registering the animal from $110 to $40 a year.

So we want to know, do you think a school for hunting dogs is a good idea to help save kiwis and get more dogs registered?

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.
Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.
Some experts say that has to change. It is such an existential threat that not to make it a requirement to teach children about climate change is doing them a great disservice, they say.
