Thank you to everyone who pitched in for the Papakura Community Clean-up!
Despite stormy weather predictions, the sun shone brightly on over 40 volunteers who banded together for the Papakura Community Clean-up on Saturday ☀ A huge thank you to everyone who came along and pitched in! 💚
Volunteers collected litter, pulled weeds, cleared drains of debris and leaves, collected cigarette butts, replaced trees, washed stairwells and brightened up garden beds with native grasses and hebe bushes. The dedicated bunch contributed a combined 102 hours of work beautifying Papakura. It’s amazing what we can achieve when we all work together!
Amongst the volunteers were passionate locals, businesses like Veolia and community groups like Rosehill College, Church of Christ, Papakura Youth Council and The Corner: Creative Space.
Thank you to Marshal Walia from Walia Parivar Trust for donating the $50 Bunnings voucher spot prize, won by Mark Taituha on the day.
We’d also like to thank Councillor Daniel Newman, Papakura Local Board member Felicity Auva'a, Papakura Town Centre Members and Constable Jason Young from the Papakura Policing Team for their involvement.
Last but definitely not least, a special shout out to the Papakura Community Crimewatch Patrol volunteers for an impressive job on the sausage sizzle after the clean-up 😋
