Kids should be heard

White Ribbon

Kids ask us for attention because they are learning how to navigate the world and build relationships - they need to be able to speak and be listened to so they can learn and grow. Challenge the #outdated rules - it’s time to shake off the old and reveal the new. Find out more

We'll just enjoy the vista from the looking platform as, you need to be very fit to descend the umpteen steps to the beach. Our next stop will be at Cathedral Cove Macadamias. We'll receive a talk about how the orchard runs through the year & view the processing facilities.
"Our macadamias are hand-picked & certified organic. Macadamias are high in fibre & anti-oxidants; contain vitamins A, B group and E, are high in beneficial mono-unsaturated fats and are cholesterol free." This venue has a large range of macadamia products which you can purchase, if you're so-inclined. But we warn you - their macadamia brittle is addictive!
At our next venue, Hot Water Brewing Co, you will get a chance to sample liqueurs from Purangi Estate (Our favorite was the Manuka Honey Liqueur.)or craft beer or green/Black/ & Lapsang Souchon teas, with a piece of pizza to wash them down.
We'll proceed to Mercury Bay Estate for shared platters for lunch & a flight of wines or tea/coffee, & dine in the evening at The Lost Spring.

Tauranga faces a “challenging” funding shortfall over the next 10 years because of the city’s rapid growth.

Up to $4.3 billion needs to be invested in in roads, parks, pipes, stormwater systems and other infrastructure to open up land for new homes and cater to the intensification of Te Papa peninsula. This is approximately double what we currently invest in such projects.

We’ll consult with you about this challenge early next year as we prepare our Long-term Plan 2021-31.

Here is a fun and easy way to reuse a plastic bottle! These are the basic instructions for creating a plastic bottle planter. Creative fun for the kids and recycling those plastic bottles? We call that a win-win.
They look adorable with succulents (cactus or herbs would also work) and chances are the planters will last for a while.

You’ll need:
• Plastic bottles
• Sharpie
• Acrylic paint & brushes
• Pencil (for sketching details)
• Scissors


1. Use the sharpie to mark out the shape of your animal on the bottle.
2. With scissors roughly cut out your shapes. After the top of the bottle is removed go back around and clean up the edges. Wipe clean (make sure bottle is clean and dry).3. Paint the bottle with chosen shade of acrylic paint, this will take several coats. Tip: use a hair dryer to speed drying between coats. Spray paint made for plastic can be used if you already have a can at home.
4. Once dry, use the pencil to sketch the eyes, mouth, and other details, and paint over with your desired colours.
5. Fill with soil and your favourite succulents. These also make cute containers to keep anything in (pencils, food, toys, beads) as well as colourful décor for your kids’ room.


We hope you enjoyed our tutorial and if you make a one we would love to see a picture!

Home Security Checklist

Exceed - we fix windows & doors

With summer just around the corner and the warmer weather setting in, you’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors leaving doors and windows open to get fresh, cool breezes through your home. But leaving your home open may increase the risk of break-ins and create an easy way for intruders … View moreWith summer just around the corner and the warmer weather setting in, you’re going to be spending a lot of time outdoors leaving doors and windows open to get fresh, cool breezes through your home. But leaving your home open may increase the risk of break-ins and create an easy way for intruders to gain entry into your home.

Exceed is here to help you with 10 top tips to improve your home security:

1 - Use key-operated locks on doors and windows – and don’t hide spare keys under doormats or in obvious places for burglars to find them easily

2 - Install security screens on all doors to keep your family safe

3 - Install window security stays to increase security, natural safe ventilation and prevent children falling from high windows

4 - Install hinge bolts to stop doors from being lifted out of their frames

5 - Upgrade beads and rubbers to hold any glass in place

6 - Install digital deadlocks so you no longer need to remember your keys when you leave your home and grant short term access to friends or Airbnb guests

7 - If you have an alarm system, make sure it is working properly

8 - Keep plants trimmed around doors and windows and install sensor lights or CCTV cameras

9 - Don’t leave valuable items like keys out in easy view for opportunistic thieves

10 - If you’re going away on holidays, make your home look occupied – leave the TV or radio playing, set lights to come on with a timer and ask a neighbour to collect your mail and take care of bins

Being aware of potential security risks and taking action early is the best way to keep your home and loved ones safe.
