Seasons For Growth - Grief and Loss Educational Programme
Volunteers Needed
Seasons for Growth is an innovative programme offering groups for children, young people, parents, & adults who have experienced significant change or loss.
Seasons Warkworth/Wellsford is currently looking for more volunteers to facilitate our programmes. Working mostly in schools, volunteers work in pairs with small groups of children. Full training is given and you will work as part of a supportive team. An interview, police checks and a weekend training in Auckland are part of the selection process.
Seasons is a chance to be of positive assistance to those who are living with change & loss and is very rewarding work.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.

Some Choice News!
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!
