– UPDATE: HOME has been located. Thank you.
This wee cat has been around for the last couple of days. It doesn’t look like a stray but is a bit frightened. Came up to eat some food.
Does anyone know this cat? Please call 4225556 or 0272299315.

I am looking for cleaning work locally. Used to do cleaning approx 12 years ago in the local area until securing a full time job for the past 10 years – until, due to COVID-19, I was made redundant. Very hardworking, honest and punctual. Have lived in my own home in Ahuroa for the past 15 years; can clean ovens, do gardening, windows and/or water-blasting.
Thanx – call karen on 0211525896 if interested
Dairy Goat for rehoming
Lottie – our saanen/nubian cross needs a home for retirement. She is 9 years old. I have hand milked her for many years and some of her daughters too. She is in kid to a saanen/Alpine cross buck and is due to kid on 18th September. She will have twins and if does will be great for milking in a couple of years. Lottie will also be able to be milked this year but her milk production is less than it used to be so she would have to be fed extremely well. She will feed 2 kids easily and she is a great mother.
I am rehoming her because I need to reduce the size of my domestic herd. Lottie was born on this farm and is in good health although she no longer has any front teeth which means she needs longer grass to eat (she can’t nibble at sheep length grass) – she needs a slower lifestyle now. She is very friendly – easy to handle and has never needed assistance with kidding. She had triplets the first couple of kiddings but seems to have twins now and looks like having twins this year too. With good care she may keep breeding for another couple of years.
If you are interested please ring me for more information. Oriel 0226192026
Dear community groups,
I know it may seem like the Local Board is forever asking for feedback but this is all part of the legislative process and next to elections, it’s the most important thing that is decided for our communities every three years.
This strategic document sets out the objectives for the Rodney Local Board over the next three years. In a nutshell, if it is not in the plan, it will not get done.
Below are some of the initiatives from the draft Local Board Plan that will benefit the Warkworth area. These have been worked up from ideas that the community has put forward over recent years and which some of us campaigned on and said we would deliver if we were elected. Therefore it would be great to get your feedback, especially if you are supportive, on these:
I have paraphrased so do please go and read the plan. These are just SOME of the proposals and not all of them may make it into the final plan, particularly if they are not supported or another priority emerges from the feedback as needing more of our resources.
You can find out more and provide feedback using this link. Feedback closes on 13 August. Hard copies of the plan are also available at the library and the Orewa Council building. You can also present to us at a hearing-style event on 22 August in Orewa from 6 pm (please book via rodneylocalboard@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz).
Thanks for that, Beth
Hello Ahuroa!
The Ahuroa Community Hall committee would like to invite everyone to our first Pot Luck Dinner since lockdown finished.
We’re running it on Saturday August 1st, and everyone is welcome, all you have to do is bring enough dinner and/or dessert to feed everyone you bring and share it with the rest of us!
Doors will be open from about 5:30pm, kids are welcome and we will try and get a TV hooked up with a movie for the kids, so bean bags or blankies or something to help them get comfy could be a good idea.
It will be great to see everyone getting together again to catch up and meet new people to the area too. Finally, BYO plates, cutlery and drinks.
Hope to see you all there!
Ahuroa Hall Advisory Committee
