Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to โ€œexuberanceโ€? ๐Ÿฅ

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Postโ€™s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, weโ€™re โ€œallergic to exuberance.โ€

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps itโ€™s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval โ€˜hospitalโ€™, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.
