Jay & Kusum from Orakei Superette have been part of our lives for so many years. They offer a great business, post centre, the BEST fresh flowers and fruit & veg. I have no idea how long they have owned the Superette but it must be over 20 years - 7 days a week - 365 days a year!!!! I have NEVER known them to take a holiday. Kind and genuinely caring people who add so much to our Orakei community. You could not find a better Local Business Hero!!!!!

I was on my early morning stroll this morning in Curran St . . beginning of the path that leads to the Harbour Bridge and came across a lady who was walking her dog with a man and another lady. She had a small dog who decided to do his business next to the the cycle lane. This woman said very loudly.. I do not have a bag. Sorry not quite sure why there are people out there walking their dogs without a bag. On my way back ..Much to my dismay .. I walked into Upton St Herne Bay.. and there was dog shit everywhere. And here I thought it was Masons Ave the dogs and their lovers liked. You are obligated to pick up your dog’s crap so please do so. Please do not spoil our neighbourhood..Herne Bay!

Hi Neighbours, just giving you the heads up, we have had 2 packages stolen from our letterbox. The packages were torn open on the spot and the items were taken, but the packaging left, so we know they were stolen. We are around the intersection of St Heliers Bay Rd and Apirana Ave. We also found stolen mail from a home close to St Thomas's church, which we were able to return.
