Stuff is writing a story about teachers buying essentials for students in need. There's the stuff you'd expect, like food and pens, but then some have bought clothes for a whole family whose house had burnt down, paid for car repairs and donated furniture etc. Has your family or a family you know been helped out by a school, perhaps in a time of crisis? Email education reporter josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz if you'd be willing to share your story. Jos would love to hear from you. [NB: Please put NFP in your post if it is not for publication.]

Poll: Would you let the grass and weeds in your local parks grow to feed and home pollinators?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kiwis love our lawns and traditionally we expect our councils to keep the lawns of our public parks and verges tidy and well mowed and to get rid of any weeds. But actually a neat and tidy green lawn is a food desert for pollinators, and leaving grass unmown and letting so-called weeds like clover … View moreKiwis love our lawns and traditionally we expect our councils to keep the lawns of our public parks and verges tidy and well mowed and to get rid of any weeds. But actually a neat and tidy green lawn is a food desert for pollinators, and leaving grass unmown and letting so-called weeds like clover and dandelion flower provides food for bees and helps support biodiversity. Would you be happy if your local authority let the grass in your local parks grow long and allowed weeds to flourish?

Auckland pest plague inbound for spring

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Mild conditions mean they survived, and their numbers are increasing every day. Rats are going to be one of the main pests - especially in Auckland. They're capable of producing litters of up to 10 offspring every eight weeks under favourable conditions.

This can have a "massive impact" on our native fauna and flora. Rats are a threat for our native birds, insects, geckos and plants - including species like the yellow head and orange-fronted parakeet. And just like rodents, wasps and other creepy crawlies also like warmer weather. These hungry pests can cause chaos to our food supply as they chew on crops and friendly insects and spoil stored food products.
