Our Book Fair raises funds for the East City Community Trust, the Barfoot & Thompson Stadium sports clubs, and other community groups. The journey doesn't stop there though! Left over books from the fair go on to great use through a number of initiatives in schools and colleges in other parts of Auckland, and all the way over in Papua New Guinea thanks to one of our partners "From me to PNG"

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.
