The pair constructed the hotels using untreated wood and tools in the village workshop over several months, with the design specially crafted to welcome wētā and obstruct predators.
The mission follows on from a similar conservation effort on the Devonport peninsula assisted by residents from Ryman’s William Sanders village.
In Birkenhead, Norris and Dick connected with environmental group Pest Free Kapātiki (PFK) to find out where the best locations for the wētā hotels would be.
PFK Kauri Dieback Campaign Coordinator Maisie Hamilton Murray said the hotels would be perfect to use during the Birkdale Beach Haven Community Project’s school holiday programme at Shepherds Park and these holidays Norris and Dick got the chance to present four wētā hotels in person.

Restorative thinking helps us to build and maintain good community relationships. This workshop is a chance to get a discussion going. It will be very interactive rather than long presentations. Let's get talking. Sessions will cover topics such as building connections, developing our confidence in brave conversations and self-facilitation, the role for faith groups in promoting restorative thinking and practice.
Sarah Thorne from ANCAD will assist us to think about how we might give and receive effective feedback. We'll play a game which demonstrates the importance of giving feedback and then explore why feedback is so important. And we'll have a go. Rebecca Smith will ask, 'Do you belong?' Her session will consider connections/relationships and how they resound with our sense of belonging. And how this can work in a community or at a street level. Rebecca works for Neighbourhood Support. Kim Bulluss will help us to explore assumptions and personal truths. Erica Fairbank will share some insights on communication secrets: reconnecting through the Language of Every Body. Richard Ward, a prison chaplain and chaplain service manager, will draw on his experience to consider how we can make our conversations safe and a safe place to be; on listening beyond and behind the words. Richard will ask us to think about recognising prejudice, valuing the humanity of the other and appropriately asking challenging questions. Greg Morgan will offer a very brief intro to the thinking behind this workshop. There will be space for all participants to share thoughts and questions.
(Note: this is non-denominational and not an in-church activity.)
Vegetarian lunch provided with some vegan options.

Have you recently observed your broadband expenses creeping up?

According to our recent Neighbourly poll, a staggering 80% of respondents have remained loyal to the same broadband provider for over 5 years, and within that group, a whopping 80% have been with their provider for more than 10 years!
Staying loyal could be costing you money! By switching providers, you could save over $300 a year.
If you're currently under contract, here's a tip: set a reminder for the 11th month to compare your options. This way, you won't get automatically rolled onto higher pricing. It's your chance to keep more money in your pocket!
Don't let rising costs get the best of you. Explore your options and save big - check out Broadband Compare and Power Compare to compare different plans and providers!
