Who's Zooming who?

Seven Stars Kindergarten

So proud of our children who recently had the opportunity to Zoom with Sophia, a scientist with Soilsafe Aotearoa.
They managed well, gathering around to listen, watch and interact with Sophia - they learnt about the different colours and textures of soils, what they feel like and the importance of healthy soils.
They were genuinely interested in what she had to say and talked about the experience with each other after the Zoom was over and we were out and about on an excursion.
It was a wonderful example of technology, technology use and lessons about the natural world working together to enhance our children's learning. Thank you so much Soilsafe Aotearoa!

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
