Toddler Playground Approved for Jean Sampson Reserve
I'm very pleased that on Wednesday the Kaipātiki Local Board approved the concept plan for the new fenced toddler playground at Jean Sampson Reserve! This has been several years coming and is now scheduled to be constructed between March and June next year :)
The playground will be fenced off to keep little ones safe and the playground pieces chosen are specifically for little crawlers, cruisers, toddlers and climbers. It includes: slides, a sandpit, tunnels, interactive panels and music pieces, tactile play corner, shadesails and nature play. The existing fire engine play piece is being refurbished and will be put back into the playground. The basketball court will remain where it is and the swings will be moved.
Thanks to Paula Gillon for her advocacy on this project!
Funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board.

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!
