Finally a reason to visit Whangārei's CBD
I admit that I'm not a big fan of Whangārei's CBD. There are way, way too many cars around, particularly on the Bank St - Walton St - Dent St triangle, and it's no fun sitting under the canopy and watching on average four cars per minute crawling and dieseling through the Laneway in search of a car park. But now there's a good reason that trumps all that, and that's Bocky Boo Gelato. Finally a gelateria with home-made ice cream in town, no need to drive to Matakana anymore. And they're located at the corner of Quality Street, which is kind of what the whole CBD should look like - pedestrian-friendly and car-free.
Please, neighbours, eat more really good ice cream and visit Bocky Boo Gelato. They must not go bust!

Good People

Our 8pm screening will be the inspiring drama, One Life, starring Anthony Hopkins.

Are you there God? It's me, Margaret
2023, Comedy/Drama, Rated PG
Cast: Rachel McAdams, Abby Ryder Fortson, Elle Graham and Kathy Bates
Margaret is just 11 when she moves with her family to a new town. The change inspires Margaret to think about everything that is going on with her life and in her friendships.
Margaret relies on her mother, Barbara and her grandmother, Sylvia for love and support. They too, are coming to terms with the next phase of her lives in a new town. Three generations of women consider their place in the world and what brings meaning to their lives.
A touching adaptation of a book which means so much to so many. "Are You There?" shows us relationships that balance humour and heart and asks the big questions.
