What do you think of this campaign? Hamilton high school students Chelsea West, Haydee Anson and Abbey Huriwai are publicly challenging McDonald's to ditch plastic straws nationwide. Although the fast-food giant has a couple of small initiatives on straw use, it seems to have no intention of expanding that initiative any time soon.
What do you think of the challenge? Should fast-food places ditch plastic straws? Do you think a straw on request policy would work in NZ? Let us know in the replies! (Please add "NFP/not for print" if you do not want your images/comments used on Stuff.)
Hi neighbours,
This Christchurch couple is getting some attention after they discovered the cost of consenting a retaining wall on their property could equal the budget for the build.
Is this just the cost of doing things right? Or do you think it's excessive? And do you know of anyone … View moreHi neighbours,
This Christchurch couple is getting some attention after they discovered the cost of consenting a retaining wall on their property could equal the budget for the build.
Is this just the cost of doing things right? Or do you think it's excessive? And do you know of anyone dealing with similar issues in Hamilton?

The infamous Lulla Doll, or Darth Vadar doll. With breathing and heartbeat sounds that lasts for 8 hours. Reset before you go to bed to get extra time.

It didn't work for my son, however there are many internet testimonials that say that it worked for many babies. At the end of the day, it may just be an awesome doll that they love.
This is a winter merino sleep sack, rated from 3 months, however it is quite long and heavy, so I feel like it would be better suited to use from 6 months.
Dome closure at shoulders, with side domes to make the arm holes smaller so that baby doesn't slip through.

Dome closure at shoulders, with side domes to make the arm holes smaller so that baby doesn't slip through.
1 zip closure at side, which makes it really comfortable.
Purchased a year ago for $120, used once only.
I loved this ergopouch sleepsack! It is 50% merino & 50% bamboo viscose with stretch cotton sides. The best feature is the double zip, which means that you can put baby in the sleep sack and zip up from the bottom.

The best feature is the double zip, which means that you can put baby in the sleep sack and zip up from the bottom. Nappy changes are easy with the sleep sack able to be unzipped from the bottom without taking the sleep sack off.
Tog wise, I think that it is rated as a winter sleep sack,however it is not overly bulky or heavy.

• In general you’re entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave each year after you’ve worked for your employer for 6 months.
• You can accumulate any unused sick leave up to a total of 20 days.
• Sick leave can be used when you’re sick or when you need to be off work to look after someone else who is sick or injured (your partner, child, or someone who relies on you for care).
• Even if you’re a part-time or casual worker, you’re still entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave a year (once you’ve worked for 6 months continuously or for an average of 10 hours per week, and at least one hour in every week or 40 hours in every month).
• Your employer can require you to provide a medical certificate if you’re sick for 3 or more days in a row, and you’ll need to pay to get it. If they want proof of sickness sooner then they will have to pay the costs of getting the proof.
These are the minimum sick leave entitlements. Your employer can agree to give you more.
Check out our website for more information about sick leave and other employment rights and responsibilities. If you’ve got questions get in touch with a CAB near you, call us on 0800 367 222 (0800 FOR CAB), or contact us online.
