Winter Football Registration Closing Soon
Hi Neighbours,
With a short burst of summer upon us it might be tempting to push thoughts of winter to the back of your mind. But if your children are thinking of player winter sport now is the time to be registering. Many of the clubs close their registration sooner than you might think.
For us at North Wellington our Junior Football (what we once called Soccer) registration closes at the end of February. So if you're thinking of getting your child involved check out our website (www.northwellingtonfootball.com...) and think about registering. If you have any questions feel free to reply to this post or personal message.
Regards,
Richard

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!
