World Maths Day

Whether the actual crunching of numbers sounds exciting or scary, celebrating World Maths Day can be oodles and oodles of fun! Maths is believed by many people to be one of the hardest subjects to achieve in because of its strictness in needing correct answers, its abstract concepts, and the overall stress involved in succeeding. But don’t let that be intimidating!

World Maths Day is a chance to test your skills, practice maths, and get involved in a worldwide event that celebrates the history of maths to improve the lives of students, parents, and teachers everywhere.

Poll: Is the Te Araroa trail on your bucket list? 👟🌳👣

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Great news for Southland adventurers! One of the toughest stretches of the 3,039km Te Araroa trail (from Kaitaia all the way down to Bluff) might soon get an upgrade.

Te Araroa Trust is aiming to raise $30,000 to kickstart a raised timber boardwalk in the Longwoods Forest, making this challenging section a little more enjoyable for future walkers.

We’re curious: Is the Te Araroa trail on your bucket list?
