Dear neighbourly.ππ€©ππ€©ππ€©
πππ¦π¦ WINNERS πππ¦π¦
Thank you to everyone who entered the school holiday colouring in competition.
There were so many amazing pictures that came in. And it certainly made our job a lot harder to pick 5 winners.
But we have picked 5 outstanding pictures from different age groups that really stood out to us.
Congratulations to the following children:
Emiliana
Emily
Lydia

I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?
Do you think you know the answer?

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weβre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Building job
I would like a pantry made in the gap the old hot water tank used to be. This involves a wall being taken out but it isn't load bearing.
Also a shelter outside over the bin area needs replacing.
I have tried Builders Crack and of the 3 only one turned up and I want more estimates.
Any recommendations of builders or handyman who are happy to at least have a look.
