The Resene Upcycling Awards are coming back this month, the third year in a row! Watch this space and get prepared for the announcement; there are great prizes up for grabs.

Upcycling is the term used for taking a preloved item and transforming it - whether it's for a new purpose altogether, or just to give it an ‘extreme makeover'. Consider using the school holidays to get Upcycling with the smaller members of your household - or use the next rainy day to drag out the paint and your creativity!

In the meantime, check out some of the creative cookies from last year.

Heavy rainfall fills Waitākere dams, but water restrictions remain

Melanie Earley Reporter from Central Leader

Kia ora neighbours, heavy rainfall across Auckland over the past week has replenished a west Auckland dam – but the city's water storage levels are still low.

Kia ora neighbours, heavy rainfall across Auckland over the past week has replenished a west Auckland dam – but the city's water storage levels are still low.
A Watercare spokeswoman said last week's deluge gave the Upper Nihotupu Dam in the Waitākere Ranges, a storage boost from 51 per cent to 93 per cent full. “But significant replenishment in the western dams does not mean we can all abandon our water-saving efforts,” the spokeswoman said.

Safer City Centre Speeds are Here! Ka Rawe!

CCRG from Auckland City Centre Residents' Group - CCRG

Today is arguably one of the most significant for our city centre public space - streets - since, well since the speed limits we have inherited were put in place - which were basically a one speed fits all 50 kph, and over engineered streets prioritising speed and movement of vehicles, that have … View moreToday is arguably one of the most significant for our city centre public space - streets - since, well since the speed limits we have inherited were put in place - which were basically a one speed fits all 50 kph, and over engineered streets prioritising speed and movement of vehicles, that have enabled much higher and unsafe speeds, and led to hostile streets and intersections, deaths and serious injuries for anyone vulnerable i.e not in a vehicle.

Today that starts to change, and we have slower safer speeds introduced into our city centre, almost all 30kph or below, not just for the 10's of thousands of people who call this place home, but for the 500,000 trips all people who share this space make walking, cycling and scooting in the city centre, every day.

There's been a whole lot of strong advocates for this, joining CCRG in getting this across the line as allies for a safer, more people-friendly city centre.

It's a very significant step in implementing the vision of the City Centre MasterPlan, and Access for Everyone, things that will enable a healthier city - cleaner air, more trees, streets we can meet people in, and linger safely in.

Good for residents, businesses, visitors, the environment and so much more. Today is the start of something new for the city centre. Ka Rawe everyone who made this happen.
