Playing the "low power game"? Come and see us at the library!

The Team from Whangarei District Council

Playing the "low power game" for a few days? Come and see us at the library!

📖 Takes no power:
Books galore! Puzzles! Comics! Non-fiction! And did we mention books?

🎧 Low power:
Ebooks! Audio books! Even free movie streaming (low power if you turn the lights out)

Our librarians are standing by hoping to connect you with the best thing you've never read.

Open till 6:00pm Friday and from 9:00am - 1:00pm on weekends. Using less power will help share the load and mean more people can get electricity when they need it.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
