Baby Caterpillar winter sleep sack 3 months - 3 years

Sylvia from Hamilton East

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.

Ergopouch sleep sack - 12-36 Months

Sylvia from Hamilton East

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. Nappy changes are easy with the sleep sack able to be unzipped from the … View moreI 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. 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.

Price: $40

With winter bugs doing the rounds, it’s worth knowing what the rules are about sick leave. So what are you entitled to?

• 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.

The confronting truth of what happened in our recent past is something New Zealanders have to reckon with. When the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, Māori owned more than 66 million acres of land. By 1975, almost 97 per cent had been sold or taken.

The land wars of the 1860s saw the confiscation of half a million hectares in Waikato. People were driven from their homes. The second Māori king, Tāwhiao, and his followers became refugees in the King Country.

Find out more about what happened to Waikato-Tainui Raupatu, where you live, and how much the land was settled for - it may surprise.
