Happy Matariki, neighbours!
An important aspect of Matariki is whakapapa - family, community, and our connections to living things. Communities across the country have put together events to celebrate.

It might not be making quite so many headlines these days, but unfortunately, Covid is still here. If you’re 65 or over, taking care of yourself is just as important as ever.

The good news is, the Covid vaccine can help protect you from serious illness. It’s free, and recommended for you and many others as long as you haven’t had the vaccine, or Covid, in the last 6 months.
To book your vaccination, or talk to your healthcare provider.
Anyone know what is going on at the Ratanui Rd/Otaihanga intersection, with all the clearing of the trees ?

As shared in an interview today, alongside other sick leave changes, Christopher Luxon said he is open to reducing sick leave from ten days to five days a year. This would reverse the change made by the last government which allows workers to have ten days off for sickness each year.

I had some some spare time the other day and was wandering along the Main Road in Waikanae when I came accross the converted containers located just before the GAS Petrol Station. This looked like a great Council initiative however I have not seen any promotions so did not know they even existed.
Two of the three shops were tenanted, one by the charity "The Shed Project" with their wooden products including Tui Feeders, Giant Poppies, Storage Boxes etc. and the other by 2 friends who call themselves J&K Pop-up. Their range of products include Shabby Chiq Homewares, Retro/Romantic Upcycled Furniture, Natural Fibre Woman's Clothing, Fabric Wall Hangings and much more.
There is also a Food Truck at the location which I believe is open on a Friday and Saturday evening.
I spoke with the tenants and was told that sometimes they are lucky if they see a customer some days which is a shame. I suggest we all take a wander down to the Pop -Up shops and support these tenants and the initiative that the council have created.
The two current tenants advised that they are open between Tuesday and Saturday 10am-3pm and will be there until the end of the month when hopefully new tenants will take over.
