Boulcott pupils want action on dangerous bus stop
A pair of school student traffic patrollers have gone straight to the top to get an “incredibly dangerous” bus stop moved away from their crossing.
Boulcott School pupils Harry Martin, 10, and Alex Jamieson, 11 penned a letter to Lower Hutt Mayor Campbell Barry and the city’s councillors asking them to relocate a bus stop outside their school. To access the stop on Ariki St the school bus needs to swing across both lanes of Boulcott St and reverse into it.
Mayor Campbell Barry has thanked the students for raising the issue with him, and said the council will look into the matter.

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!
