MIDDLEMORE FOUNDATION PYJAMA DRIVE
MIDDLEMORE FOUNDATION PYJAMA DRIVE
CAN WE DO IT? OF COURSE WE CAN! IF WE WORK TOGETHER.
We have seen many times before just how generous the people of Pukekohe are.
As we all know, the nights are getting cold and 213 Franklin children have been identified by their teachers as needing a pair of nice warm pyjamas to keep them toasty on these chilly nights.
We are very grateful for the generous donations we have received so far. These pyjamas go direct to the children in our community who have been identified as needing them now.
Here are numbers and sizes of pyjamas we are short of.
Size
4: Boys x 4
5: Boys x 19, Girls x 4
6: Boys x 16
7: Boys x 13
8: Boys x 15, Girls x 18
9: Girls x 5
10: Boys x 37, Girls x 15
11: Boys x 15, Girls x 15
12: Girls x 20
14: Girls x 3
16: Boys x 4, Girls x 5
Total pairs needed: Boys 125, Girls 88
Pyjamas can be left at Franklin County News, Pukekohe Travel, Top Notch or Pukekohe Anglican Church or text Jan on 0274521 366 and we will arrange for them to be collected. Maybe you could collect some for us at your office or place of work or amongst your friends.
Thank you for supporting our local community as we try to keep our children warm and out of hospital.
This is a Middlemore Foundation project run with our Franklin Health Locality, Pukekohe Community Action and Pukekohe Anglican Church plus our wonderful community.
MANY MANY THANKS

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.
