Public Basketball Court In Trentham
Taking shape right now is the Hutt Valley's first public half court basketball court.
It's being installed on Grant's Bush Reserve in Wallaceville Estate and only metres away from a host of residential houses.
I have mixed feelings in regard to this amenity designed in particular for 10-20 year olds to enjoy.
Some of these amenities get dismantled overseas and I believe one was shut down in Auckland.
Outdoor public half court basketball courts can promote high noise levels, unruly behaviour and a place for influencing anti social actions.
The Upper Hutt City Council had received submissions etc opposing the court and/or where it is located.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
