New Shadesails at Shepherds Park!

John Gillon from

Check out our awesome new shadesails at Shepherds Park, Beach Haven!
These are part of the Kaipatiki Local Board​'s shade programme to protect children and the equipment from the sun and allow the playgrounds to be used during the day. They are the third full-coverage shadesails we've installed, following on from Little Shoal Bay and Inwards Reserve.
Thanks to the amazing team from Shade Systems NZ​ who installed these before heading to another installation in Tauranga.

Supported and funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board, Danielle Grant​, Paula Gillon​, Anne-Elise Smithson​, Adrian Tyler​, John Gillon​.

Home made bread problem

Karen from Totara Vale

Is anyone else having trouble with bread dough not rising properly?

I used to be able to turn out a decent loaf but now the bread is half the height - if that - and very dense.

I've used 4 different brands of yeast including the type bakers use to no avail. I've changed the flour to the best available and I've followed the recipe meticulously.

It can only be the flour?

What do you think?

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?

Keen for the details? Read up about the scrapped collection trial here.
