Please park properly
At school pickup time, while it may seem easier, and you’ll “just be a minute” parking in bus stops is not only an inconvenience, it’s dangerous.
Guthrie Rd, either side of the Nimon St intersection, is bus parking, not pick up parking, and parking there stops the bus drivers getting their big buses in properly, and end up blocking the driveways, and the road.
Please don’t do it. Park a little further away. The kids won’t melt in the rain, and you will get in and out faster.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
