This new research clearing up their previous puzzling finding that suggested palm may have been a staple plant food for Rapa Nui's population over several centuries.

The name "Easter Island" was given by the island's first recorded European visitor, the Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen, who encountered it on Easter Sunday (5 April) in 1722. Roggeveen named it Paasch-Eyland (18th-century Dutch for "Easter Island")
The island's official Spanish name, Isla de Pascua, also means "Easter Island". Chile annexed Easter Island in 1888.
.
The large stone statues, or moai, for which Easter Island is famous, were carved in the period 1100–1680 AD. A total of 887 monolithic stone statues have been inventoried on the island and in museum collections. Although often identified as "Easter Island heads".

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

These days however they are not so natural :( with most being created with a complex blend of petroleum derived chemicals.
Many conventional perfumes contain over a dozen chemicals that do not have to be disclosed on the label.
Among them are chemicals associated with hormone disruption and allergic reactions, and many substances that have not been assessed for safety in personal care products.
Scary huh!
Especially when you think this is what you every day may be putting on your skin, every day what you are breathing in and every day what your family and kids are breathing in.
Again scary!
So why not make your own?
Come along to my class and learn how super simple it is to use doTERRA essential oils to blend up your own signature scent that is not only 100% natural, it can also do positive things for your emotions, your hormones and your health - with 0% side effects.
Win. Win. Win.
The class is $30 and you will learn how to choose essential oils that complement each other to make three different personalized perfume blends to take home and try out for yourself.
Next class is Friday 19 April at 10am -12pm (Easter Friday).
Classes are small, so message me to book your seat ASAP.
And if you can't make it this time, message me and we can arrange another class time or gather a group of friends and I can come to you.
