About Girl Powered Workshops:
The Girl Powered workshops are a supportive environment and opportunity to create awesome STEM experiences for girls that can lead to a better reflection of the diversity in our communities. Despite all genders showing equal interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in primary school, women only represent 30% of the STEM workforce.
These workshops by Kiwibots are a way for us to encourage inter-generational engagement in STEM, creating a safe space for our girls and encouraging them to take part and have a go. Join us for a fun robotics day out – no experience necessary and a fabulous opportunity to try your hand at robotics! We can’t wait to see you there.

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!
Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
