Green thumbs wanted

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

More than 1600 native plants went into the ground at Styx Mill Conservation Reserve last weekend.

Now, the second of Trees for Canterbury's community planting events will be held at the Charlesworth Street Reserve on Sunday, May 19.

Trees for Canterbury and the Christchurch City Council's regional parks team will help establish native trees and shrubs in the reserve.

The reserve is being developed to re-establish an estuary-edge ecosystem, including salt-meadow, salt-marsh and coastal bush that are currently very rare or non-existent in the area.

Community planting: Charlesworth Street Reserve, 10am to 2pm, Sunday, May 19.

πŸͺ±πŸ¦ When are you the most productive? πŸŒ™πŸ¦‰

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choiceβ€”it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
