Marsden students doing good

Inge Doig from Samuel Marsden Collegiate School

Maya (Year 12) has been volunteering her time with the Be Collective Wellington Office. Be Collective is a platform that makes volunteering easy, connecting people, businesses and groups to causes they care about. Maya is pictured with Community Development Manager, Lauren Parsons.

Marsden's Year 8 students have also completed over 300 hours of service in the community as part of their William Pike Service Day. They got busy in the kitchen and dropped off baking to various charities, helped out at Wellington Primary schools from Ngaio to Mirimar and picked up beach rubbish. Well done girls!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
