‘The children are our future.’ It’s a well-loved cliché around the world because it’s absolutely true. The hopes and dreams we have for our communities are only as strong as the children and young people who continue to believe in them long after we’re gone.

This month is all about supporting our young people, to encourage and empower them to not only be the change-makers and community builders of tomorrow but also the best versions of themselves. To listen to their perspective and remember that it’s not just about what we can teach them, but what lessons they can teach us. After all, the recipe for creating healthy, happy children includes a lot of the same ingredients for building safer, more resilient and connected communities.

Want to share your thoughts?

Let us know how you’re supporting young people in your communities this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

Siren's 100% Merino, Double Collar Jumper keeps out the cold, with a draw corded cowl that sits inside a double ribbed collar. The longline top features two angular zips (which can be left open) and a stepped hemline. Striking, warm colour in Mustard with dark Navy hems and collar.

Currently in stock at Zebrano although in limited range as they say it rocketed out their door last winter and seems to be doing the same this year with the demand for 100% Merino.
My reason for selling is that I bought it in a hurry and should have bought size 20 which they didn't have. Zebrano's current price is $179 so for the price I am asking - your GAIN, my PAIN. See link for Siren at Zebrano

Super stretchy with curved hem at the front and longer hem at the back. Perfect for wearing on its own or for layering. Because you don't get many colour options on TM I have listed as purple but really, I would call this a deep Fuschia leading into purple.
