Hospital midwives strike

Waikato District Health Board

Important Maternity Services Notice

Midwives who are members of the MERAS union will strike on Tuesday 10 August from 11am to 7pm. This is part of nationwide strike action and does not affect Lead Maternity Carers (LMCs).

The priority of Waikato DHB is the care of women and their babies. We have plans in place to ensure they have access to the services they need and are kept safe during the strike.

Waikato DHB hospital maternity services will still be available. However, we will not be able to provide elective services and clinics on the day of the strike (10 August). We will contact these women directly.

If you have concerns or questions, please contact your midwife. For more information please visit our website Find out more

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!
