Net Safety Night at Hillcrest Library

Bevan from Hamilton East

Hey everyone, just letting you know that at the Hillcrest Library, there will be a Net Safety Night on Thursday 29th July at 6pm. The evening will start with a short presentation from Netsafe, and then there will be an open forum where parents and caregivers can ask questions and get advice around some of the threats that their families might encounter online.

Every week in New Zealand, nearly 440 people seek help from Netsafe for online harassment, image-based abuse, hate speech, grooming, scams, and school incidents. So, it's a really good chance to get some in-person help and advice if you're worried about these numbers. There will also be some hard copy resources to take away with you as well.

You can pre-register your interest at the following link (hamiltonlibraries.co.nz...), but you can also simply show up in the evening.

Some Choice News!

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!
