Papatoetoe South School Working Bee

Paul Dickson from

So, on Tuesday 8th May, the next OKE Growing A Future Working Bee will be taking place at Papatoetoe South Primary school. We've been very fortunate to receive funds from Fonterra Grassroots Fund to cover some of the costs of the working bee and once again we'll have Bunnings on board.

We need more volunteers to help build the garden, so if you're free, please do come along. Everything kicks off at 8.45am and the garden should be all built by 3.30pm! See you there :)

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
