We'll meet again 💚

Mari from Cockle Bay

12 August was the last time we danced together at 'Dance Yourself Happy' in All Saints' Community Centre, and despite all tightly crossed fingers and toes, we won't be able to return for any of the last three Thursday sessions. It is sad news, but let's not let that get us down! 🤗

Like D:ream said, things can only get better. Let's set our sights to 2022 and see what it brings. While waiting, let's cue up some amazing dance playlists from Spotify and Youtube 🎶 and tune into live DJ sets over Mixcloud and Twitch or wherever they pop up 💿🎧💿 Let's introduce more moments of happiness into our lives by dancing 💃🕺 – in the home office after a frustrating Teams meeting, during the lunch break between the sandwich and the cuppa, while doing the cleanup after dinner, on Friday after clocking off... the floor is yours! I have absolutely loved every second of dancing with you in 2021 💚

Here's an ode to the next time:

Aucklanders, our weekly rubbish collections are staying after councillors voted to scrap a proposed trial of fortnightly pick-ups.

We want to hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
