The Guardians of Pāuatahanui Inlet will be leading the 12th Pāuatahanui triennial cockle survey on Sunday 2 November at 1 pm (with a weather-determined back-up date of 16 November).
Cockles form a large part of the Inlet marine fauna and monitoring the strength of the population is an important tool for assessing the ecological health of the Inlet. Our programme (the longest running community science programme in NZ) has long been recognised as a prime scientific activity, both for the information it provides and for the opportunity it offers the community to be actively involved in implementation of the strategic plans for the Harbour.
There are 30 survey sites around the Inlet and each site needs a team of at least 3, preferably 4 or 5, volunteers so we are seeking the help of around 120 members of the community with 30 of those willing to take on the role of team leader.
Participating in the survey is a great activity for secondary school students, particularly those studying biology and ecology. It also offers the opportunity of a team building activity for local groups, businesses and other organisations or just a group of friends who want to spend an afternoon together doing something constructive for the community.
For more information go to or e-mail pauainlet@gmail.com if you can participate in any way.

(If not, you can read a summary of the June quarter's activity on this article published by the Post)

Now that the weekend’s over and things have calmed down a bit, the Neighbourly Team are keen to hear from you: how are you feeling about it all?

Summer’s coming, and holidays are on the horizon … should we be focusing on the future rather than the past quarter? Or is this dip in the road a real concern?

Poll: Will we reach our Predator Free target in 2050?

Aotearoa New Zealand is aiming to be predator-free in 2050 to ensure our islands' unique species of birds, frogs, lizards and plants can thrive.

New Zealand has among the highest proportions of threatened or at-risk species in the world, and around 25 million native birds are killed by introduced predators every year. But it's not all bad news - when predators are removed or controlled, nature bounces back fast. We’ve already seen it happening in many parts of the country!

People all over Aotearoa are doing their bit - setting traps in their backyards, planting natives, volunteering, or donating. You can too! Backyard trapping is one example of effective individual action.

What do you think? Can we reach our Predator Free target in 2050?
