Auckland Transport (AT) said members would attend the meeting from 11am to 1pm but trains would be cancelled approximately two hours either side of the meeting as well.

It's been described as "one of the greatest family events", so will you be heading along to Auckland's Coca-Cola Christmas In The Park this year?
Mike Puru and Dancing With The Stars contestant Jess Quinn will be hosting the event. So have yourself a merry little Christmas and enjoy the event!
Info: Everything kicks off around 7.30pm Saturday December 8th at the Auckland Domain. It will air on Three on Saturday December 15th. For all you need to know about the event, click here.
Every Christmas, we somehow manage to spend more on gifts than we planned and buy more food than we could ever eat. Inevitably, this creates a lot of waste. Which is why this year, we’re focusing on turning Christmas waste into Christmas joy. After all, there’s more than enough Christmas to go … View moreEvery Christmas, we somehow manage to spend more on gifts than we planned and buy more food than we could ever eat. Inevitably, this creates a lot of waste. Which is why this year, we’re focusing on turning Christmas waste into Christmas joy. After all, there’s more than enough Christmas to go around.
Join us in our goal of giving every Aucklander a Merry Christmas and donate what you save.

Learn about doTERRA essential oils and how they can naturally support your physical, emotional, spiritual and environmental well being.
It's a sad fact that we now live in a toxin filled environment.
We can't control the toxins and chemicals we are exposed to when we are out and about, but we can control what we are exposed to inside our house.
From the products we use to clean our house to the beauty products we put on our skin. Many of these can have nasty chemicals hiding in them that over time, can build up in your body and have negative side effects on your health.
I want to show you how to use essential oils to replace all these with natural alternatives!
In this class you get to smell the oils, learn about the oils and learn how to use them safely and effectively and have the opportunity to purchase oils to start on your own journey into a more natural toxin-free life.
And then sample some yummy essential oil infused treats!
This is my last class for this year. More classes resuming in January.

This will be someone that embodies the big guy with the white beard year round and who people in your neighbourhood often refer to as Santa.
Obviously, this person will also be the one that is called upon each year to don the red suit to go out and about posing for photos, handing out presents and just be an all-around nice charitable person.

Hi, I'm moving house and at the 11th hour it appears I can't take any of my potted plants 😪.
I have a 2meter tall San Pedro in a big black Morris and James pot.
I will take any reasonable offer. Must pick up today. Can take a photo and send to interested neighbours.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!
A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.
