Local students help to develop Wall Park in Linden

Wellington City Council

Students from Tawa Intermediate School and Linden schools have come up with some amazing ideas for Wall Park in Linden.
On Wednesday whānau and friends came together at the Linden Social Centre to acknowledge their mahi.
Working with the Council and Tawa Education Technology Trust, the students have learnt about urban design and placemaking to help with development of the park.
Cr Jill Day presented each student with an "Absolutely Awesome Designer" certificate signed by our Chief City Planner David Chick.
Looking at these creative ideas, we think there could be some future urban designers in this bunch.
Be sure to see their work for yourself and share your views at Tawa Library, where it will be on display until 7 November.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
