Ngaio Progressive Association / September 2010
Ngaio Crofton Downs Residents Association promotes the interests of the Ngaio and Crofton Downs communities and the natural environment. We aim to foster healthy public spirit; promote improvement, beautification and development; and advocate for the Ngaio and Crofton Downs communities. The Association was founded in the 1920s as the Ngaio Progressive Association and revived in the 1980s. In 2012 we voted to change our name to the Ngaio Crofton Downs Residents Association to better reflect our purpose.

Council liked what they saw and put the children’s ideas into action. They put a row of flags along Churchill Drive and replaced the existing signs. New signs for Crofton Downs
