Bells on bikes?

Gary Farrow Reporter from Cambridge Edition

Hi neighbours,
Cambridge ward councillor Sue Milner and the community board have suggested Cambridge could take part in a drive to encourage cyclists to have bells on their bikes, as the population of the town increases. What do you think? Do you think this is needed?

Hi Neighbours

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.

KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.

"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”

40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

Retired plumber

Dianne from Hamilton East

Would there be a retired plumber who could come and advise me of a problem I have. I do not expect the person to undertake the work, just to forewarn me of what it is and the severity of it. Sometimes surprises are bad for you :)

Bat and people priorities are being put to the test in the Tamahere Reserve.
Waikato District Council closed the reserve in late March, saying several pine trees posed a risk to the public.
DOC has previously declined applications from the council to fell pines in the reserve, because it would "kill or destroy the habitat of long-tailed bats".
Tamahere-Mangaone Restoration Trust volunteers have spent hours restoring the site, and say DOC won't let them fell mature pines to replace them with native trees.
"Yes, bats have been found foraging in the reserve, but no one can prove bats have lived here recently," trust member Bill Hodgson said.
And nearby resident John Simmons says about 30 trees are leaning perilously over Tauwhare Road.
Read more here and here.
