Third judge announcement
Our third judge of the Playhouse Challenge is Jane Lancaster, the Chairperson of Birthright Canterbury Trust and a trustee of Birthright NZ. She has been involved with Birthright Canterbury since 2012.
Jane says she is getting involved with the challenge "because it brings together, in a unique way, a playhouse as a symbolic reminder of the shelter needs of our families and the needs of all children to develop and thrive through creative play.”
In her working life, she is a consultant with Catalyst Ltd, which provides independent, specialist advice to companies in the food and agricultural sectors. Jane is also a Board member of Food Standards Australia New Zealand.

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.

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!
