Red Cross team members have been working in Kaikoura to link households with services and essential supplies. They're also on hand to provide wellbeing support for those who are struggling with the quake's impact or for people who have just been told they can't stay in their homes.

"There's so much food and stuff gone, but we're alive - that's the main thing," says Kaikoura resident Diane Edkins (pictured) who finds out whether her house is given the all-clear while a Red Cross volunteer is with her: www.redcross.org.nz...

Meet Mini!
Breed: Sharpei x
Age: 4 years

Mini was a DC girl almost 4 years ago, she had been purchased with a stolen cheque, driven half way across the country with another dog in a stolen car, then ended up in the pound at only 4-5 weeks old. We couldn't leave her there the day we seen her so home she came.

She has been living in an awesome family home, been to puppy school, and due to a change in circumstances she now needs to be rehomed.

Mini can be wary of strange men but warms up to them very quickly. Medium build, approx 21 kgs. She enjoys a good walk, is playful and loves company. She would suit a home with an experienced older or retired couple wanting a dog to take out and about. She's a very sweet natured dog and submissive with people. She is low-medium energy level. Vaccines are up to date. An adoption fee of $180 is asked to help cover costs while in our care.

We're all busy - so how can we get our kids out of the car on the school run?

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Since the 1980s, the proportion of children being dropped off in a car has doubled to nearly 55 per cent. With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents.

With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents. Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and should be the hearts of our communities
.

We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.

You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!

I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...
