22.01.2022 Shared with permission from the Wahroonga Community group: Just a heads up. My husband surprised some dodgy looking people early this morning on our street (Ha...mpden Ave) They ran back to their 1990s blue hatchback and took off when the dogs barked and he appeared ( around 5.30am). Just remember to lock houses and cars (and be grateful sometimes for barking dogs!) See more

21.01.2022 Shared with permission from the Wahroonga Community group yesterday: I was sitting on the bench near the Wahroonga carpark when I witnessed the grey car crash ...into and damage the side of the blue car. The women in the grey car was just about to drive away without leaving her details when another person in the carpark commented to the women that she had just crashed into the blue car. She then got out of her car and had a look. I hope she left her details but I did not witness her do so . This accident happened at approximately 11.30 this morning. DM me if you would like me to be a witness. See more

17.01.2022 Fire has destroyed a house in Sydney’s north-west overnight. About 7.30pm yesterday (Thursday 26 November 2020), emergency services were called to a house on Ne...ville Court, Castle Hill, following reports of a fire. Police arrived to find the house and attached three garages engulfed in flames. Fire and Rescue NSW worked for four hours to get the fire under control but the building was destroyed; the damage is estimated to be in the vicinity of $2 million. No one was inside the building and there haven’t been reports of injury. Officers from The Hills Area Command have established a crime scene and commenced an investigation. Fire investigators and scene of crime officers were not able to enter the site until this morning; however, initial inquiries suggest the fire was not suspicious. Anyone with information, or who may have been in the area at the time of the fire, is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

16.01.2022 WARNING SHARED FROM A RESIDENT IN TRENTINO RD TURRAMURRA Beware of a tree lopper called Eddie. He is of Maori or Pacific Islander appearance, tall and with very... short dark hair. He pretended to have been sent by my neighbour to trim trees next to our dividing fence because their leaves were said to be blocking her gutter. The card he gave me did not correspond to the logo on his shirt, which was something like Shore Trees. When I called the number on the card, they'd never heard of him. I spoke to my neighbour and she said she knew nothing about it and hadn't sent him. He cheated me out of several hundred dollars for work which was unnecessary. See more

07.01.2022 TRICK OR TREAT | If your children are planning on trick or treating this Halloween, there are a few important guidelines to follow to keep the event COVID-19 sa...fe. Providing levels of community transmission remain low, NSW Health is supportive of Halloween celebrations going ahead with some caveats: It should be a front-yard event, not a front-door event (keep event outdoors) Instead of communal lolly bowls, consider other ways of distributing treats (eg strewn along the front fence, have hand sanitiser at the front gate) Trick or treat on a household basis (eg a supervising adult and children from the same household), rather than groups of young people together Maintain physical distancing between trick or treating households don’t all crowd together in a pack Keep it local put effort into decorating the front yard rather than focusing on well-known treat streets Don’t share costume face masks.
