From the frontline of one of the world’s biggest humanitarian disasters, doctors Chris and Xand van Tulleken reveal the crisis of migrants in Europe fleeing war and terror in their home lands.

Travelling from Syria to Calais the doctors explain the many risks refugees face: poisoning from the plastic they burn to keep warm, the rampant disease in overcrowded camps and the dangerous sea journeys to reach the promise of safety in the West. This is the heartbreaking human tragedy behind the headlines - from the devastating lows of suffering and loss to the inspiring highs of human courage and kindness. (PGR)

Did you know that Surfdale in Waiheke Island received its name via a competition? The winner was awarded a section of land near the beach...

At 8 pence a day on top of a small deposit, a Surfdale section was also promoted as a sound investment – so close to downtown Auckland that “values must go up and up and up”.

Well, they weren't wrong there.

Today, Waiheke Island brings to mind sunny vineyards and beachy weekend getaways. The image of Waiheke as an “island paradise” has its origins in 1920s marketing, but the island has long been desirable even as its character has changed over the past centuries.

As we go into the long weekend and begin to venture further afield again, why not have a read of how Waiheke came to be the place it is today, in this blog about its recent history by our Project Curator, Jane Groufsky.
