Safe Schools Speed Trial

Greg from Birkdale

AT and a Landscape Architect firm came up with a scheme to place obstacles and art on Birkdale Salisbury Rd intersection. Without prior scientific observation as to what was occurring. Involving and informing as few people as possible. Promoting kids playing next to moving vehicles. We came up with NOat signs to encourage better solutions and consultation. (please note that a placed sign means we have permission to place and the view of the property is independent although generally supporting.) Suggestions about what AT should do, should be sent to AT - but do not expect any response. Calling it a Trial is not an excuse for the manner it has been done. All the information you get is vague. And there is no option to be against this. Decide if this is how you want your future roading solutions to be.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
