Unveiling for a WW1 Veteran

Denise from Marewa

On Saturday, 6 November at 11am, a headstone will be unveiled for a veteran who las lain in an unmarked grave since August of 1938.

Thanks to Genealogy Investigations and NZ Remembrance Army, a headstone has been purchased and will be unveiled with a service.

There is limited parking in the cemetery so parking down by the dog agility equipment or at the sportsgrounds is recommended. The cemetery is beside the cycleway.

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
