Recent issues (October 2007) have been around 68 pages.
The Federal election issue (November 2007) created a lot of discussion in the community and we received a huge positive response for the cover. The Christmas (December 2007) issue is very topical and informative about the safety of our children on the world wide web.
Our strong cover for March 2008 issue-the Apology issue-had generated some very passionate responses from readers.
Local government elections special-September 2008-has generated great response and we have received requests for copies from outside our main distribution area of Upper North Shore. Readers are impressed with the quality of editorial and not just media releases and asking for magazines.
Previous editors have included Arti Kumria, Michaela Bilik, Guy Weress and Mani Veiszadeh.
