Items needed for an Early Childhood Education project

Barry from Otorohanga District

Hello people. My daughter helps run an Early Childhood Home-based Education organisation. They have a headquarters base where she is planning to build an Enchanted Forest which will be rearranged/reconstructed on a monthly basis, so she needs quite a collection of "treasures".
They need: Tree stumps for kids' chairs and tables. Paua shells, coconut shells, that kids can use as bowls. Large interesting buttons and beads for treasures and "silver" cutlery for making wind chimes. Painted "eggs" and glass paper weights that can be hidden amongst the trees. Birds nests in which she can put bird figures and decorative eggs/stones/precious looking items. Natural baskets and sheer scarves for dancing. Text or calls to 021 626 090 would be appreciated.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
