Having moved from Australia to New Zealand, Lahaina and Hawea went through our Stars programme to not only become head students but also excel as peer mentors at their high school.
Hawea said “I used to never like talking, I used to always be in the background hiding, then during the programme (Stars) I learned more social skills, how to speak and become more confident with my speaking.”

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!
