Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival

Naichao from Hutt Central

Dear Neighbours,

Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival is coming!

The 8th full moon of each Chinese lunar year is meaningful for Chinese people. It's a reunion time and a symbol of consummation. During the festival, eating mooncake is one of ceremonies.

This year, 21th of September is the festival day.

At the special time, we'd like to bless for all the people suffering to have a better future.

Mooncakes are on sale!
All are welcome, if you would like to visit one of our stores and give it a try:
123 Willis St, Te Aro, Wellington
3 Hillary Court, Naenae, Lower Hutt

All the best to you all!

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.

Some Choice News!

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!
