Springs Road Dairy Local Remembrance this Sunday at 1.40pm

Marco from Hornby

Just to confirm at 1.40pm this coming Sunday there will be a one minutes silence outside the Springs Road Dairy for the Hornby Community to observe and show our love and support to the Ismail Family who tragically lost their son Junaid. There was also a lot of other families affected by the events of 1 year ago and they will be remembered as well.

After the minutes silence Hornby Community Board Member Mr Mark Peters will lead us in prayer followed by addresses to those present from Hornby Councillor Cr Jimmy Chen and then our Community Board Chairperson and Hornby Ward Community Board Member Mr Mike Mora. Public will then be asked if anyone wants to speak.

Residents are encouraged to bring flowers and/or messages of support and place them at the Springs Road Dairy on Sunday to show our support.

If anyone has contact with the Riccarton Cricket Club we would love them to be represented at the rememberance.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
