Wheelchair accessible swing for Whangarei
2024 Wheelchair Accessible Seesaw, Raumanga. We are thrilled to share that our fundraising was successful, and as of October 2024, the construction for a wheelchair friendly seesaw is underway in Raumanga, Whangarei. We will update you with photos once construction is complete.
Now that 2024 is rolling to a successful close, we are setting our sights on our next project. We are asking you, the community, to have your say on the next location for a wheelchair friendly swing. Our two preferred locations are the playground being planned in Onerahi OR Pohe Island playground. Please vote via our poll on our Facebook page, or contact us at childrenwithdisabilitynz@gmail.com
Option one -- Onerahi
Option two -- Pohe Island
Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟
I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?
