Rotary Annual Charity Book Fair, Northcote College

Bob Lang from Rotary Kaipātiki

Just a big thankyou for all those many people in the community who supported our Rotary Annual Charity Book Fair by donating books, or attended the fair. It was a great succes, the best ever, but it could not have happened without many volunteers who offered to help. Thanks go to Multiple Sclerosis Auckand, for their assistance, and it was pleasing to see the group rewarded with a large cheque from the proceeds. Thanks also go to the suppliers of services, and once again to the local Z service stationson the North Shore that came the party by providing collection points for dropping off of books.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
