Struggle with everyday maths?
Hi Neighbours
It’s Karen here, from my new business Maths4Adults. Is there an adult in your life who struggles with everyday maths? Maybe they’d like to help their children with homework, apply for a job handling money, calculate discounts or just to feel more confident using maths.
I’m an experienced, friendly, patient tutor here in Nelson keen to support adults to achieve their life goals. Some of you will already know me as a primary tutor under my Maths Spies business, but now I’m a qualified adult educator too.
I volunteer at Literacy Aotearoa helping adult students with their Learner Driver Theory and am in my 5th year of being a mentor for Big Brother Big Sister. When I’m not tutoring I’m up a hill or on the water, enjoying the great outdoors in lovely Nelson.
Call me to discuss how I can help: 021 216 3395

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
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!
