Surgery helps Māngere Bridge girl to walk
Hi neighbours, a five-year-old girl can walk after a long-awaited surgery. Ella's family left Māngere Bridge on ANZAC Day in 2018 and travelled to the USA where she had a selective operation. After being born at 25 weeks, Ella's mum was told Ella would never walk, talk or recognise her parents. She had defied those odds and made great progress. Read the story.

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!
