Now that summer's finally here and the holidays are just around the corner for many, we'd love to hear about your favourite summer holiday memories.

The Kindness Collective Foundation is bringing Christmas cheer to 250 vulnerable children at these facilities run by the Taonga Education Centre:
Nga Taonga Aroha Early childhood centre in Otara, Aranga Early Childhood centre in Manurewa, Homai Nga Taonga ECC, Manurewa, Nga Taonga Manako ECC, Kelston, Eden Campus ECC, Mt Eden, Kakano Early Childhood Centre in Clendon and Potiki Early Childhood Centre in Clendon.
The Auckland charity has paid for Christmas parties, trees and decorations for each childcare and is buying Christmas presents for the youngsters.
But the giving doesn't stop there.
The charity is donating 80 food boxes and grocery vouchers to childcare families to tide them over during the expensive festive season.
"The Kindness Collective Foundation heard about the hard work we do at our centre to keep our whanau going and they reached out to me to offer their help," said Emma-Jane Jones, centre supervisor of Nga Taonga Aroha Early childhood centre in Otara.
Jones said 2020 had been a tough year financially and she was "blown away" by such a giving gesture.
"At my centre in Otara, I don't have any parents that pay fees so we're always a little bit strapped for cash... and for them to jump on board has been phenomenal."
Jones said she believed in giving preschoolers wrap- around care which extended to their whanau.
"We make sure the children always have clothing, rain jackets and food and that's often coming out of our teachers' pockets."
Jones said that if the charity had not stepped in, she would have had to pay for her centre's Christmas party, which kicks off on Thursday.
"I have four children of my own and my children have learned from a young age that they're privileged in some ways and quite often my children get less so I can support the children in my care," she said.

The flowers at the top are hollyhock, the smaller flowers in the middle and at the bottom are geraniums I pruned today when I was taking out the hollyhock bush to make way for more light for the roses. The vodka bottle I found in a Pak N Save parking lot a while ago. 😃 ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😃

The biggest boost of $28 million would come from a higher rating on land zoned as residential, commercial or industrial which is either vacant or undeveloped.
Council officials estimated 15,500 homes could see their rates rise at least 35 per cent under the plan, with 1,400 business properties facing rises starting at 82 per cent.
The proposal is part of a range of potential tweaks, including a new rate to fund investments to tackle climate change and one to help affordable housing initiatives.

The masks feature in 42 machines at bus and rail stations along with ferry wharves.
Auckland Mayor Phil Goff has praised the initiative.
“The more simple and convenient we can make it to wear a mask, the greater the uptake will be," he said.
“This will mean passengers who may have lost or forgotten their mask can get one quickly and easily and avoid missing their journey."
AT has bought 1500 masks to go into into the machines.
Aucklanders can buy a pack of four masks for $9.
What do you think of the initiative?
