It's time our parks for our Tamariki are made 100% safe, instead of them being boarded up like the towers are.
Enclosed is my letter to Auckland City Council.
Good afternoon, Today I was really dissappointed after taking my Tamariki to the Tui Glen Park today, It was no different back in the last school holidays, What use to be a really wonderful and safe Park/play ground for our young Tamariki of Auckland City, is now unmaintained and could be considered as dangerous, What use to be an awesome park, that was Commisioned back in 04/2012. Each of the climbing frames, swings and flying fox's all have a small plate fixed to them, They have the Commisioning date only, there has been no obvious recorded mainenance since on any of the equipement in the park, The 2 large climbing towers with the between the towers is boarded of each each to prevent the Tamariki using the bridge because the netting is in such a delapidated state this bridge allows the smaller kids access to the 2 slides. I heard today Auckkland City Council did not want to spend the money on putting new netting over the bridge, as it was going to cost $50,000 to get from Germany, Are our children not worth spending money on to make the park safe. The Flying fox's both need urgent attention as the rollers are almost worn out, once the kids travel down the flying fox, it can't be returned back up for the next person unless it is pulled down tightly, any small child can not do this with out help. Time to step up and look after the Assets that are inplace for our Tamariki, especially in the parks over the Holiday's. I will post this letter in the Neighborly for rest of West Auckland to see how the Auckland City council looks after our parks and does not consider the children using them.
Regards Brian

The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.

Just after 9.30am a person entered the PostShop on Royal Rd and pointed a pistol at a female worker before running off with an amount of cash.
Several Good Samaritans gave chase and followed the suspect down a service lane between the Countdown and Mobil service station and out onto Moire Road. One of the Good Samaritans recovered an amount of cash dropped by the offender and returned the money to the PostShop before Police arrived.
Police would like this person to come forward so we can thank him for his assistance and obtain further details about the robbery.
The offender has been described as Maori or Polynesian, medium to solid build, 6 foot tall [182cm] with a distinctive 5cm dark black birthmark or mole on their left cheekbone. The suspect was wearing a grey hooded jacket, dark coloured shorts and black shoes.
