These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.
If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?

"Grounded in Sonia's personal journey with a-capella singing, world music, French music, sound healing, acting and singing in various bands, the aim of this beginner-friendly workshop will be to introduce attendees to a set of tools for accessing their own creativity through voice, body, breath, playfulness and song, increasing self-confidence, listening and expressive skills, improving vocal agility and an introduction to group improvisation.
Through a guided process of creative group exploration, participants will be encouraged to strengthen their physical and spatial awareness and connection, as well as learning about the voice, singing and harmony, with a special focus on a couple French tunes.
Gate opens 10.45am for 11am Start. One and a half hour workshop.
Merci beaucoup & à bientôt!
“Sonia Wilson is a living, breathing human Womad Festival. Born and raised in Paris, UK-educated and now based in Auckland, the Franco-American singer, songwriter and musician had a dizzying musical apprenticeship. A member of both gospel and Acapella choirs from a young age, her music has taken her from the streets of Paris, across the Kenyan savannah, through remote Himalayan villages, and then ’home’ to New Zealand. When she’s not performing, Sonia teaches, offering classes in individual and group ukulele, guitar and vocals.” (Peter Malcouronne, Ockham Collective)

The owner says: The tone is quite lovely and it sounds good when played. I can’t swear to the length but it should be about 4’11. It's due for a tune. The ivories are in good condition, nothing sticky about the hammers. It's a basic piano and a beautiful piece of furniture. I need to let it go and would be very happy for someone to take it for the cost of moving.
A piano reconditioning specialist said: It's a reasonably good make. It needs work, including restringing. The easiest is to give it away "as is" on the understanding it needs work. It is a baby grand so will always be a bit short on tone.
Please call me on 027 450 5057 if you are seriously interested.
I can't seem to add a picture but can send one separately if needed.
2 small plum trees. Plums are red skin with yellow flesh
Avocado trees to be replanted
