Family say they've lost hope six months after disappearance of missing French teen Eloi Rolland

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours,

The family of missing French teenager Eloi Rolland have long held on to hope that one day their son and brother will be found.

But six months on from his disappearance in Auckland, the hope that has kept them strong has dwindled.

Without explanation, Rolland left the property he had been living at with a host family in Birkenhead, on Auckland’s North Shore, on the evening of March 6.

With only a small backpack, Rolland boarded a train on platform five at Britomart train station in the CBD about 6.30am on March 7. It is not known where he spent the night.

He did not use his Auckland Transport Hop card to tag off the train when he exited in New Lynn, however AT’s CCTV cameras spotted him walking southbound down Fruitvale Rd about 7.30am.

He has not been seen or heard from since.

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!
