Poll: Should Waikato have a medical school?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It's been pitched before - a bid for a medical school in our region was made by the University of Waikato and Waikato DHB in 2016.

The idea has been put on hold and brought back to life before.

Now a new dean of health at the university has renewed the push and has backing from a city councillor.

Do you think Waikato should have a medical school?

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!
