Our 'Big Ram' SPCA Op Shop in Tirau officially has a name.... Henry!
Congrats to our winner John, who submitted this ๐ The inspiration behind this suggestion was so lovely it won the hearts of our SPCA team ๐
Henry was submitted in memory of Henry Clothier, 1941-2021 - the 'Tin Man' credited with transforming Tirau. It was Clothierโs vison for Tirau to transform the i-Site Public Toilets to be a giant corrugated-iron dog to sit alongside the established sheep-shaped wool shop of its time. All three were built from 1994-2005, and now years later Tirauโs corrugated set of iron animals are standing strong on State Highway One and have become a local landmark.
We wanted to express our appreciation to all of you - our lovely supportive community who took part in sharing names for him. We loved all the amazing entries that came through ๐

Many New Zealand gardens arenโt seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days โ the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, whoโs 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!
