Extended Saturday hours
Hello Drury Library friends,
I hope that you are keeping warm and dry as this latest burst of winter weather buffets us, we have had some feedback that some of our users would like to use the library on Saturdays but that our current hours don’t fit in with their other activities. Accordingly we have decided to trial extending our Saturday hours, remaining open from 10.30am until 2pm starting 8th June. We will evaluate the uptake and based on this, continue or revert to our current open hours.
Thanks and we look forward to having you join us at your community library, as always please feel free to provide any feedback especially how you feel the proposed new Saturday hours will impact your use of the library.
Regards
Drury Community Library
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.

Some Choice News!
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!
