BPW Franklin awards
A lovely BPW Franklin meeting this week. Presentation to our bursary winner Dahnie Skelling who attended with her family. All very proud of her, with good reason. We are very sad that Rachael Speedy is stepping back, what an asset she has been
Also had other awards and our AGM with Sally Sanderson stepping down and Helen Baucke our new President.
Many thanks to Sally who stepped into the Presidents shoes with very little warning and took it all in her stride with aplomb, when she hadn't even been a member for very long. Amazing woman.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
