Western Springs Community Planting Day
SUNDAY 18 JULY 2021, 9:30AM - 12:30PM
Please join us for a community day, planting native trees in the forest at Western Springs Lakeside Te Waiōrea.
We'll start at 9.30am, rain or shine. Bring some closed-toe shoes, weather-protective clothing, a bottle of drinking water, and a spade and gloves if you have them.
Protect our parks from kauri dieback: Bring only clean footwear and equipment with you.
Meet us on the north side of the lake beside the weir (about 40 meters west of the public toilets).
Your hard work will help to grow this urban ngāhere (forest), creating new habitat for native birds and other wildlife in the park.
After the planting, stay and get to know others from the community and join us for some free kai!
If you would like to help out, please RSVP with the Community Liaison Team by emailing westernsprings@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz or clc@kotahiprojects.com or calling 0272678818

I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
