JUSTICE OF THE PEACE - CHANGE OF HOURS AND LOCATIONS UPDATED 20 MAR 20
The Orewa CAB and Whangaparapa Library have closed their doors and thus JPs will no longer be operating from those locations. The Orewa Baptist Church has kindly agreed to provide an office and with immediate effect, JP services will be offered from this location going forward from 19th March 2020.
It is hoped that normal services will resume at the Whangaparaoa Library sometime in April but please watch this space for any changes.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday have been added at the Silverdale Mall. This service will commence on Saturday, 21 March 2020.
It is highly recommended that you read the attached document for timings etc.
We would like to thank all clients for their consideration during these trying times. Please recognise that JPs are all volunteers and provide their services and time free to the community.
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!

You are never alone
This year, I was given news that took the wind right out of this solo mum’s stomach: I was diagnosed with two types of curable breast cancer. Even writing those words still feels surreal.
I’ve recently completed five rounds of radiation, and while that chapter has closed, my journey is far from over. I now take daily medication — which, if I’m honest, comes with its own wild rollercoaster of highs and lows — along with monthly injections and six-monthly IV infusions.
All of this while raising two incredible, energetic tween boys who are full of wonder, life, and light. They have been my anchors on the darkest days and my reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
I’m sharing this because, in the New Year, I want to create a support group for anyone walking this path — no matter where you are on your journey. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, in treatment, finished treatment, or supporting someone you love.
Let’s build a village.
A place to lean, to cry, to laugh, to talk openly, and to remind each other that none of us have to do this alone.
Because the story doesn’t end when they tell you you’re “in the clear.”
In many ways, it’s just the beginning. 🌻
If this story touches your heart, and you’re on this journey too, feel free to message me. Even a quiet “me too” is enough...
