Is repairing Mauao a community job?

Hi neighbours - repairs to Tauranga's iconic Mauao walking track is predicted to cost $5.2 million, but locals say $60,000 and some shovels is all they need to fix it.

The public have expressed community-led ideas to repair the Mauao track, and the need for the council to just "keep it simple".

Volunteers could simply dig into the slope of the track to allow access around the damaged area, using local builders to remove "less than a truck full of dirt" to allow the track to reopen.

Is repairing Mauao a community job? Would you get involved?

Hi neighbours - at 9am the day election nominations closed, 19-year-old barber Stacey Rose threw his hat into the ring and by 2pm, he was a councillor.

He said he is ready to seize the opportunity and be an example that youth can make great councillors. He believes in representing young people in the region who feel like they haven't been represented before.

Do you think he's got what it takes to respond to issues we are facing as communities? Are younger councillors the way of the future?

Personality puss! Requires a quiet and loving home.

Perfect for a single lady and in a quiet home environment.

Marsi was a rescue kitten and has been very well loved and cared for 6 years. She is roughly 6/7 years old. She is fixed and micro chipped.



Unfortunately, as I am going overseas I cannot take her with me I need someone who will love her as much as I have. She is very low maintenance and is very independent. She is very sweet and loves scratches under her chin. She absolutely loves treats.



Please only serious inquiries. This puss is very deserving of a good home.

YELLOW - A Colourful History

When writing to his sister in 1888, Vincent van Gogh wrote, “The sun, a light that for lack of a better word I can only call yellow, bright sulfur yellow, pale lemon gold. How beautiful yellow is!”

When writing to his sister in 1888, Vincent van Gogh wrote, “The sun, a light that for lack of a better word I can only call yellow, bright sulfur yellow, pale lemon gold. How beautiful yellow is!”

Yellow holds an unusual place in history. It has been held in the highest regard as a symbol of the powerful sun and rich gold, but has also been considered the colour of outcasts and vagrants.


Yellow was one of the first colours to be used in art – cave paintings depicted in yellow have been found in caves in Europe dating back to approximately 25,000 years old. The pigment came from the earth – a coloured clay called ochre that could be yellow or red. Yellow ochre contains hydrated iron hydroxide, with a distinct gold colour.

The Egyptians and Romans loved yellow, using it to represent much-prized gold in their art. The Egyptians used a yellow mineral called orpiment in tomb paintings, not knowing the arsenic compound was highly toxic.
