🥇🥇🥇Our Gold Sponsor: J Young Motors Ltd 🥇🥇🥇
Ashley and the team are amazing. Best customer service, hands down.

Silver Sponsor: Bay View Volunteer Fire Brigade
Their cadet program is incredible- experiences that you can't get any other way. My kids are doing it, and they love it.

Bronze Sponsor: Betta Inspect It
If you need any sort of property inspections, surveying or testing, they're the team.

Also, a huge thanks to: The Bay View Pub, Pāmu, NZ Mortgage Advice for your donations

High School Bus

Hi community, we're looking for bus sponsors for term 3 to help support our local kids get to high school. It's great exposure with logos applied to the bus side or back, packages for the term ranging from $1500-$5000 (including printing and application), depending on size and position.

If you or someone you know is interested, please email [email protected].

A huge thanks to Sarndra N Simon Spice and the Eskdale War Memorial Church Board for their sponsorship and donations.

We’re thrilled to see another community project brought to life in Bay View.

After local residents approached the Bay View Community Trust with the idea, the Trust secured funding from Pub Charity to create this new mural on the Le Quesne Road toilet block. It’s already been receiving wonderful feedback, and it’s great to see such a positive response from the community.

The Trust remains committed to projects that enhance and brighten Bay View, and has also recently revitalised the two garden areas at the village entrances.

A big thank you to Pub Charity Limited for helping make this project possible.

Hey Community,

The Bay View Community Charitable Trust would love your help.

You may have noticed the improvements underway at the traffic islands near King George Hall and the Fire Station. We’re making great progress and would really appreciate an extra pair of hands to help us finish the job.

We’re holding a working bee tomorrow morning and would love you to join us.
It would make a big difference if you can spare an hour or two.

We’ll be spreading crushed shingle, so if you have a wheelbarrow or shovel, please bring them along.

Details:
Date: Saturday 21st February
Time: 8:30am
Location: Bay View Fire Station
Please bring: Gloves, shovel, wheelbarrow (if you have one)

Thanks in advance — we hope to see you there!
