Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

Revised from today's earlier post as the figures did not look correct but were.
The picture does look bleak as National cases have skyrocketed from 4778 to 8943. nearly double last week
Canterbury has followed that trend with a rise from 763 to 1250.
I would say if it rises or even continues to stay at this level, this is a serious situation
All the recommendations for vaccination and safeguards should be in place.
Masks for the vulnerable would not go amiss in crowds

Stay aware and safe folks.

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.

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!
