Please help Northshore students go to Olympic competition! A big THANK YOU!!
Go to: givealittle.co.nz...
NZOI ( New Zealand Olympiad in Informatics) selects a team of 4 school students annually to compete against the rest of the world at an international event annually. This year the students travel to Hungary, along with 2 leaders. 3 students are from colleges in Northshore.
These students have competed in 4 selection exams against the best competitive programmers in NZ schools to make the team. But its an expensive trip. In the past students have been almost exclusively funded by the Royal Society. With Covid and a change of direction within MBIE and the Royal Society, they will only be partially funded this year. While this is an enormous help, more money is required. If you can help with a dollar or more, please do!
About us
a) Provide training opportunities in informatics to NZ students currently enrolled in school.
b) To select students for the International Olympiad in Informatics and the EGOI
c) To foster informatics (programming) in high schools
Use of funds
Fares to the International Olympiad in Informatics for the 4 high school students and 2 leaders.
The students are chosen from a group attending a summer camp.

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!
Home made bread problem
Is anyone else having trouble with bread dough not rising properly?
I used to be able to turn out a decent loaf but now the bread is half the height - if that - and very dense.
I've used 4 different brands of yeast including the type bakers use to no avail. I've changed the flour to the best available and I've followed the recipe meticulously.
It can only be the flour?
What do you think?
