ANZAC DAY (25 April) - Last Post and Ode to Remembrance 10am
Dear neighbours, I live across from Hataitai School at the start of Rakau Road. I know many may wish to observe Anzac Day at 6am at your letterboxes. I wanted to let you know that I will also be playing the Last Post at 10am from our deck and another neighbour, Commander Roger Havell RNZNVR will be reciting the Ode to Remembrance. We're both very aware that Level 4 restrictions remain in place. But if you wanted to be at your letterbox or nearby (maintaining the two metre distancing and remembering we must avoid anything that constitutes a gathering) it would be a pleasure to share this with you. Some of you may have heard me playing earlier this week. I am in the NZSO and was also recording a version for them. Kia Kaha.

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!
