Thieves hit St John supporters

Reporter Community News

The women from Highland Park Sewing Group are devastated.

Thieves broke into their storage shed during the weekend and spread faeces over the group's materials and containers.

The ladies, who meet at the Howick Ambulance station hall, donate all their profits to St John.

Culprits also stole suitcases and three Christmas hampers which the ladies put together out of their own money for a fundraising raffle for Howick Ambulance.

The teddies and quilt are all handmade.

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!
