Western Springs Community Planting Day
Conservation Volunteers has partnered with the Waitematā and Ōrākei Local Boards to plant native trees around some of our local waterways.
On the 12th of June we will be planting at Western Springs to help improve the water quality of the lake, and to provide food and habitat for our native species. Planting will go from 10am-12pm followed by a free sausage sizzle!
What to bring: Gumboots or closed toe shoes, appropriate long sleeved clothing and trousers, favourite spade (if you have one), gardening gloves (optional). Some spades and gloves will also be provided.
Conservation Volunteers can also transport a limited number of volunteers to the project from our office in Eden Terrace.
Bookings are essential. If you would like to make a booking or for more information please contact info@cvnz.org.nz or call 0800 567686
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
