One beach-goer said she had never seen anything like it in 40 years of walking on the beach. The seaweed is slippery, smells salty and resembles clumps of ginger hair. One of New Zealand's top marine biologists was unable to identify the species from a photo, so the seaweed remains nameless - for now. What do you think it is? Let us know in the comments.

Both are great options, which would you prefer?

A 12-year-old boy was sent home from Helensville Primary School on Friday morning as the school claimed the shirt he was wearing was not pink enough for Pink Shirt Day, which was a symbolic stand against bullying led by the Mental Health Foundation. An email sent to the boy's mother from the school said he was sent home as students were told to wear pink if they had it, or wear uniform. No mufti was permitted.
