The Adventure Starts Here
• Do you love getting out and about on adventures?
• A young teenager in West Auckland looking for fun on Saturdays
• Are you supportive of neurodivergent and rainbow communities?
We are looking for a young person to have fun and adventures with a teenager who is highly intelligent, gifted with autism & ADHD. Every week on a Saturday for about 4 hours to go out and enjoy the local area and/or wider Auckland.
Perhaps you are neurodivergent yourself or have a good understanding of neurodiversity?
Generally, this teen is bubbly, happy and a kind person, but can get overwhelmed sometimes. As well as being fun and energetic yourself, you will need to be patient, calm and empathetic when the need arises. To be able to go with the flow of someone who is energetic and impulsive. Supporting her in her ideas and talking through how they can work. Being able to wait out any moments of anxiety and discuss them later would be a great skill for this role and not taking things personally.
Saturdays will consist of going to places like the mall, a game of mini golf or trying something new. You will need a car and a full licence, like dogs and not be afraid of spiders! We need someone who can move spiders should the need arise. Being able talk/hear about video games such as Zelda and Pokémon would be a great advantage.
If you are up for fun filled Saturdays, please email jobs@flyingkites.org.nz or send me a message

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!
