Exciting day out for the kids!
This weekend the military-themed Armistice in Cambridge event is on at Lake Karapiro. Tanks, battle re-enactments and a water-skiing aircraft!
Kids (of all ages) can try up to 20 interactive activities - archery, ride in a WW2 jeep, drive radio-controlled tanks, row a Navy cutter, shoot an Airsoft gun, fire a Roman catapult and make a plastic model for just $3. Most are free, some gold coin.
The event runs both Saturday 10th and Sunday 11th. Gates open 9:00am to 4:00pm. Adults $15, kids 12 and under just $5 (under 5’s free).
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
