Fewer than 10 per cent of shoppers are scanning in at some Auckland supermarkets after another community outbreak of Covid-19 hit the region.

The Ministry of Health had revealed fewer than one in six people who have downloaded the Covid Tracer App are using it daily.

Stuff reporters were outside three different supermarkets in three parts of Auckland on Monday- Ponsonby Countdown, Pak n' Save Lincoln Rd, Henderson and Manukau Pak n' Save.

All up, Stuff reporters saw 81 people sign in at the three supermarkets, out of a total of 432 shoppers.

Do you use the Covid Tracer App?

Why or why not?

For those who don't sign in, is this decision prompted by privacy concerns, or something else?

Would be interested to hear your thoughts.

Kids should be heard

Kathleen Clemens takes such pride in cleaning the Hunua Falls toilets that they have been named Keep NZ Beautiful's best loos 2020.

The 26-year-old, who has learning difficulties, works her magic on four women’s toilets, two men’s toilets and a disabled toilet, plus three urinals.

She landed her first job as a part-time cleaner after her family noticed her commitment to cleanliness.

Clemens opted to tidy the litter and dirt around her family's Hunua Falls food cart instead of complaining about the mess.

The loos she keeps sparkling clean are looked after by Citycare Property and its partner Civic Contractors.

They said that even though park users are expected to take their waste home, Clemens picks up every scrap of litter left behind near the toilets and carpark.

Where are the other top loos in Auckland?

Where are the cleanest public toilets you've visited?
