Te Huia Sunday services are ready to launch---Now operating seven days!

Brian from Mount Roskill

After four years of operating New Zealand's newest interregional public transport rail service - originally running only two trips during weekdays - Te Huia will now be travelling seven days per week between Frankton in Hamilton and the Strand in central Auckland!
From Sunday 27 July, new trip times include a 2:45pm Northbound service to Auckland, and a 6:15pm Southbound service to Hamilton on Sundays.
These exciting service improvements bring Te Huia up to a massive 30 trips per week - that's a total weekly travel distance of over 4,020km! 🤯
With massive thanks to our friends at Kiwirail and Auckland Transport, Te Huia can now access the Auckland Rail Network on Sundays, which we hope will continue to increase travel opportunities and connectivity between the Waikato region and Auckland City.

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?

Age Well Kiwi

Mabel from Hillsborough

We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.

With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.

We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.

If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
