We found out that some participants have some pretty wacky costume ideas like; ‘Donald Trump', ‘an inflatable flamingo’ a ‘popcorn vendor’ and ‘grumpy grannies’. Comment below with what you'll be dressing up as this year!

Our volunteers enjoy being at the forefront of something great - by building a positive relationship with an older person you really change their life. It works for everyone involved. However, we still need some more volunteers needed:
- Tongan speaker available on Wednesdays for Mangere
- Spanish speaker in Botany Downs
- 3 volunteers for Botany Downs
- 4 volunteers for Waiuku

Jade embarked on the project that resulted in a machine that buys gold from the public by utilising some of the best-known technologies in the market.
The machine is smart enough to identify the type of gold by its purity with its 100% self-calibrating scale and provide an offer to you in a fair pricing manner. You have the choice - accept the offer and get paid directly to your bank account, or reject the offer and take your gold.
The process is done in 3 simple steps:
1. Introduce yourself (driver’s licence or valid ID is required).
2. Introduce your gold (place your gold on the scanner on the outside of the machine).
3. Finalise your transaction (accept the price and have the funds transferred to your account or reject the offer and take your gold away with you).
The Gold ATM system keeps records of all transactions including photos and fingerprints to provide to police to assist with any inquiries they may have.
Come and try it for yourself at one of our convenient locations.
- Botany Town Centre (by the Farmers entrance)
- Hunters Plaza Papatoetoe (food court path)

If he gets the most votes, what would he do with the thousands of dollars worth of cool gardening gear? "It would go to our society, the Sanctuary Community Organic Garden Mahi Whenua Incorporated, for looking after the gardens and food forest. The Sanctuary is a place of cultural significance coupled with amazing biodiversity. And it’s right in the heart of Auckland."
