Thank you Clendon Whanau

Nicole Stanton from

We think these 120 wonderful volunteers deserve a little special recognition for the beautification they did last weekend!

3 hours of their Saturday morning was donated back to the community - this adds up to a total of 360 free community service hours!

Together we swept & picked up litter, washed windows, painted benches, trimmed hedges, planted a tree & many plants in bare spots and collected 6 x 240L (=1440L) wheelie bins full of loose litter and approximately 600kg of waste in black bags, which was very efficiently disposed of by the Civic contractors & Citycare Property team.

We would like to acknowledge each and every one of the wonderful volunteers who participated as well as the many volunteers groups. We had representatives from Clendon Business Association Ambassador Team, Citycare Property & Civic Contractors Team, The Pride Project Team, Manurewa Bluelight BBQ & Bluelight JAM Crew Chefs, Kainga Ora Team, Downer Team, Raise-up Youth Crew, What Hope Team, 180 Youth Project – Crossroad Ministries Team, Student Volunteer Army, AIGA Energy Team and the Manurewa Youth Council Team. It was just amazing to be part of such generous collaboration!

We are still buzzing - thank you Clendon!

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!
