Hi Neighbours,

My name is Hadley Anderson and I', a student at the University of Canterbury studying towards a MSc in Applied Psychology. I am currently looking for participants who work 20+ hours a week to participate in a survey looking at potential differences between same-sex and mixed-sex partners in areas of work-family conflict and perceptions of life satisfaction. This research is part of an international study as well as a unique area of work-family research. If you currently work 20+hours a week I would hugely appreciate if you could take the time to look at my survey and contribute to this unique and important area of research for everybody's work life wellbeing. If you would like to participate, please click on the following link:

If you have a partner that also works 20+ hours a week, feel free to pass the survey link onto them. Thank you for your consideration, and if you have any questions feel free to contact me at hadley.anderson@pg.canterbury.ac.nz

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!
