We're all busy - so how can we get our kids out of the car on the school run?

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Since the 1980s, the proportion of children being dropped off in a car has doubled to nearly 55 per cent. With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents.

With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents. Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and should be the hearts of our communities
.

We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.

You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!

I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...

Looking for sheep or goats

Ryan from Ngaruawahia

Hey neighbors!
7 months living in Glen Massey and we think it's time to get some natural lawn movers on our property.

Hey neighbors!
7 months living in Glen Massey and we think it's time to get some natural lawn movers on our property.
We'd like to put it out there to see if anyone firstly has any sheep or goats they'd like to get rid of - we'll happily come take them off your hands. Alternatively we'd like to purchase some.

We're looking for either two sheep/lambs, or two goats/kids.

We're not sure if it's best to start out with babies or get more grown ones - any advice would be great. They're mainly for the top back hill area on our 1300 sq.m property.

We're double checking to make sure the perimeter is. Ice and secure too.

We also have a chicken coup that needs some chickens, but first things first.

Regards,
Ryan and Kathy
