CAB Volunteer Awards!
💛 We celebrated our amazing volunteers last week with a delicious morning tea, beautifully organised by Botany Manager, Megan - complete with her homemade Matariki shortbread stars.
Each year, we present a few certificates to recognise volunteers who have made an outstanding contribution. These get spread around the volunteers from year to year. All of our volunteers are absolute stars!
The proceedings were ably MC’d by Board Chair, Richard - also a volunteer - seen here smiling happily out of each picture.
So top first and left to right, we have:
⭐ Linda: Volunteer of the Year plus Outstanding Success in content and design, providing dedicated commitment to managing our social media pages.
⭐ Brian: For providing support to Management and assisting in the training and mentoring of new members, providing presentations to Community meetings and compiling editorials for the Solutions column for the Eastern Times local paper.
⭐ Indira was presented with a Presentation pen box - with pens! - honouring her recent Life Membership of CAB - 10 years outstanding service to CAB.
⭐ Tina: For providing and presenting Maths Tuition workshops and supporting our Bureau in local community events.
⭐ Helen: For outstanding support of our Social Team, Coordinating and managing Volunteer Social Events and CAB meetings.
Congratulations to all of our fantastic volunteers! 👏 👏

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.
