Tell us about it: what are you going to do; how does it work for you? How does it differ from your memories of footing it to school as a kid?
An important plank of our Foot It campaign this year has been to encourage councils to lower speed limits outside schools. Families and schools have been enthusiastic about our initiatives to make it easier for kids to get out of the car. And when we wrote to all New Zealand's mayors in February, they offered resounding support: many wrote back promising to do their best to lower speeds, but cautioning that their hands were tied by NZ Transport Agency rules that (extraordinarily) stood in the way of lower speed limits.
Now, the Government has stepped up too: Associate transport minister Craig Foss has announced new Speed Management Guidelines that will make it simpler for councils to lower speeds on the roads that are busiest with cyclists and pedestrians. Read more from this weekend's Sunday Star-Times: www.stuff.co.nz...
We welcome this. So last week, we wrote to the mayors again (many of whom are new to the roles after the local body elections) challenging them to commit to putting lower speed limits outside schools on their council agendas in the first half of 2017. The Sunday Star-Times and Stuff will report their responses, whether they be good or gutless.
It's not just about the Government and councils, though: it's about taking responsibility as communities and individuals. So take the initiative: bylaw or no bylaw, if enough of us voluntarily slow down as we drive past schools in our towns and neighbourhoods, that will slow other traffic and make our streets safer for our kids.
TODAY'S WEATHER: We've attached the MetService rain map for this morning. In short, it's a great day to walk, ride or scoot to school with your kids, anywhere in the country. But this afternoon, a pile of rain is going to land, splash, in the middle of the North Island and Hawke's Bay. Don't say you weren't warned ....
THE FOOT IT PLEDGE: We're all busy - but many of us can find ONE day a week when we can scoot or walk with our kids to school. So make the pledge!

Has been washed but still slightly discoloured with age. I found it really helpful when my daughter was a baby, because she hated sleeping on her back (reflux). Has removable cover for washing, and also one of the wedges is attached with velcro so you can make it bigger or smaller.
The wedges are made out of foam rubber triangles.

About 30 items of girls clothing, ranging from 0-3mths through to a size 5 dress. Mostly summer, although there are a few winter jackets.

I have a Babyhood cot to give away, BUT, it's not useable at the moment. Missing all the bolts, and one of the drop levers (to lower the side of the cot) is broken. Not sure if you can get spare parts from anywhere, or you could just bolt the side in and have it not lowerable.

Not sure if you can get spare parts from anywhere, or you could just bolt the side in and have it not lowerable. I've hung on to it with big plans for maybe making a small sofa type seat, but cleaning out the clutter.
NO Mattress.

Hi,
These would be perfect to replenish the rabbit, guinea pig, chicken coup etc. These are left over shavings from the calves and the kids have decided to bag them into smaller bags and sell them. The shavings are nice fresh and fluffy. $5.00 per bag or 3 bags for $10 approx 3.5 -4 kg in each … View moreHi,

Hello, as an alternative to running long kms, I am looking at maybe throwing some cycling in as well. And who knows, maybe a swim.. Does anyone have a road cycle for sale. I am not looking for a top of the line model.

And who knows, maybe a swim.. Does anyone have a road cycle for sale. I am not looking for a top of the line model. Just something that is a bit easier on the road than my mountain bike but more up spec than my old Cruiser from the 70s.. Let me know.
