More info and resources re: proposed industrial incinerator project

Jennifer from Tamahere

For anyone who might like to keep up to speed on all of the info, submission-writing, public meetings (yes, some are on ZOOM), etc. around the proposed industrial incinerator project in Te Awamutu - please join the Don't Burn Waipa FB group. I'll link it in this post. There are heaps of resources there, links to events, flyers you can use, etc. This is a very active/engaged group of people who are fighting this project that would be a disaster for our regional environment AND would set a precedent for building MORE of these types of facilities in NZ. www.facebook.com...

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

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

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

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 it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
