Girl Guide Volunteer Leaders wanted
Hi everyone,
I'm Marie and I'm a Brownies (Girl Guide) leader at St Lukes.
We are looking for a new leader to join our unit, so if this is something that interests you (or someone you know), please get in touch! Here's my ad below:
Do you have a desire to give back to the community and help build happy, confident, and resilient young women? Then becoming a leader in GirlGuiding could be for you. Our Leaders come from a wide range of places, ages, and backgrounds. No previous Guiding experience is needed, many of our leaders have never been involved before
Our St Lukes Brownie Unit (girls aged 7-9 years) need volunteer adult leaders to join them today! Our Unit meets on Monday from 6:00-7:30pm.
If you are passionate about positive outcomes and experiences for Girls and Young Women apply now on our website at Join Us - Adventure and Leadership - GirlGuiding New Zealand (girlguidingnz.org.nz)

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
