Debuting at SkyCity Auckland is the All Blacks Experience, a guided, interactive showcase of the All Blacks, Black Ferns and all New Zealand's national rugby teams in black.

With so much going on this time of year it’s easy to get caught up in the festivities and forget about others, especially those having a difficult time.
Whether it’s an elderly neighbour who lives alone to a family on your street working hard to make ends meet, reach out to someone who could use a little extra joy in their life and remind them what the holiday spirit is all about!
Other ideas include fundraising for a local charity, doing a food or toy drive, organising a ‘Secret Santa’ gift exchange on your street, giving a present to a neighbour who helped to make your 2020 better, or even host a community Christmas lunch.
Let us know how you’re giving back in your community in December by emailing: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz

If yes to any of these questions, then please see our buyers this week. We will buy single items or complete collections.
The recent lockdown has seen many of us take the time to sort items we no longer require or simply want to turn into cash.
We are currently very short of stock and keen to buy any of these or similar items.

The Maungawhau School learners submerged a time capsule capturing 2020 inside a concrete pipe.
Sealed for 25 years will be a teddy bear to mark the area's highly touted teddy bear hunt during Auckland's lockdown.
Students have also concealed a face mask, a QR code for the school, newsletters, class photos, along with diary entries about 2020 and homeschooling.
The treasures will be dug up and delved into during the school's 100th annual fair.
