Waikato Regional Public Transport Plan fare policy consultation
Waikato Regional Council is also asking the community for feedback on proposed changes to the regional public transport fare policy.
The review considers how bus fares, concessions and fare products could operate in the future when Motu Move, New Zealand's national public transport ticketing system, is introduced to Waikato (expected in late 2027).
Topics in the consultation include:
• youth fare discounts
• youth fare capping
• SuperGold travel during weekday peak times.
Consultation opens at 9am on Thursday, 3 September 2026 and closes at 5pm on Monday, 5 October 2026 yourvoicematters.waikatoregion.govt.nz/rptp-2022-2032-proposed-fare-change For help with the consultation material or submission process, please contact transport@waikatoregion.govt.nz or 0800 800 401.

Kiri’s passion for horticulture began while she was still at school, with work experiences at Bracu Olive Orchard, Punchbowl, LeaderBrand and PGG Wrightson helping her discover the many career opportunities within the industry.
Starting part-time work at PGG Wrightson at just 15, Kiri was inspired by the field representatives she met and developed a goal of becoming a technical horticulture representative herself.
She went on to study horticulture at Massey University, drawn to its strong focus on practical, hands-on learning across orchards, glasshouses and farms.

One of the highlights of the event was a meet and greet with International President Mark Lyon, where the Leos were presented with his Banner of Friendship.
At the same time, another group of Leos hosted a card-making activity, creating cards alongside Lions from New Zealand, France and other countries. The Leos shared why they enjoy being part of the Leo movement and spoke about the projects and community initiatives they participate in.

We’re also thrilled to see former PHS student Tisi Vehikite return to the Heat squad after spending time on the sidelines recovering from injury. Her return to representative rugby is a fantastic achievement and one we’re proud to celebrate.
We wish Sala and Tisi all the very best for their upcoming representative campaign. We’ll be cheering you on!

During assembly students gave short cultural education talks about Tonga Culture. Students also encouraged our school community to use some everyday Tongan phrases, including “MALO E LELEI” (hello) and “MALO ‘AUPITO” (thank you).
A highlight of the week was our visit to Pukekohe Intermediate, where their junior students welcomed us and taught our students the MATE MA’A TONGA dance. We finished the celebrations with a lunchtime performance in the Hall
Mālō ‘aupito to all of our students, staff and community – God Bless
