Poll: Do you think the Easter Tuesday holiday should be dropped?

Rhonwyn Newson Reporter from Rodney Times

Parents across New Zealand have been thrown off by Easter Tuesday - an extra day off for state and integrated schools over the Easter holiday break.

Although the Tuesday after Easter Monday is not a public holiday, it was a school holiday this year, making Easter a five-day break from school.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
