new EarthDiverse course: “The History of Love” with Peter Dornauf
EarthDiverse is pleased to announce a new short History/Philosophy course entitled “The History of Love” beginning on Wed 5 June (11:00am-1:00pm) and lasting for 3 consecutive weekly sessions in the same time slot.
Who would have thought that such a universal part of the human condition had a history, one that exhibits huge shifts and changes in patterns of conduct? This series of three consecutive weekly discussions with local Author/Artist/Philosopher Peter Dornauf tracks that changeable history via art, artifact, literary record, music, social revolution and historical example. It traces the origins, development and final resting place of that ephemeral and eternal phenomenon we call Love.
Come and spend your winter Wednesday mornings discussing the History of Love with new friends and and a cuppa tea/coffee at the EarthDiverse Centre in the Hamilton CBD! Or consider joining in the discussions on-line via Zoom.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Giant tui takes flight on Te Awa River Ride Art Trail
Spotting a tui is usually enough to make anyone pause what they are doing to behold its beauty - but this one will definitely stop you in your tracks.
The tracks in this case are on the Te Awa River Ride, the new cycle and walking trail that runs alongside the Waikato River. A section of the route, between central Cambridge and the Grassroots Trust Velodrome, is in the process of becoming a grand outdoor art gallery.
