If you are employee of ANZ, ASB, BNZ, Kiwibank & Westpac plus any more banks not mentioned above as well as fertility clinics & Plunket, please glue these paper buddies filled with messages in windows of your workplaces!

You are welcome to put any messages related to women's rights in Internet banking & parenthood!

Messages written on paper buddies should be:
1. "I Can Do Internet Banking But Doctors Say Having Children Are Unrealistic For Me"
2. "Why Am I Not Allowed To Have Children Even Though I Can Do Internet Banking?"
3. "I Can Do My Business On TradeMe But Doctors Are Trying To Stop Me From Having Children"
4. "TradeMe Always Helps Me Succeed So Why Can't Doctors See That?"
5. "Other Women Are Allowed To Have Children & Do Their Business On TradeMe So Why Not Me?"
6. "How Do I Show Doctors That I Can Use Internet Banking To Have Children?"
7. "Internet Banking Is Awesome Tool In Helping You Have Children"
8. "Tell Doctors That I Can Plan Everything On Internet Banking When I Have Children"
9. "What Is The Problem With Doctors Stopping Women Using Internet Banking From Having Children?"
10. "Please End Discrimination Against Women Who Knows About Internet Banking"

You can choose one of these messages above or add your own messages to these paper buddies advocating for women's rights in Internet banking & parenthood!

You can also decorate your paper buddies or just leave your paper buddies completely blank with only messages on front & back

More people making paper buddies to go on display in windows everywhere to speak up for women facing discrimination just because they are using Internet banking, more likely we are to end discrimination against women who use Internet banking!

Then doctors will stop discriminating against women who use Internet banking when they see paper buddies on display in windows everywhere!

Show everyone that women deserves to become mums with help from Internet banking!

Remember that "nothing is impossible when you have access to Internet banking!"
Remember that "nothing is unrealistic when you have access to Internet banking!"

Let's work together to END discrimination against women who use Internet banking!

Naturally, you want to share this journey with your beloved furry companion, and at Ryman, you are welcome to bring your pet along, provided they are suitable for the village environment.

Once your pet is approved for the village, the focus shifts to ensuring a smooth transition for them. Dogs and cats, being creatures of habit, may find relocating stressful. However, with patience and a thoughtful approach, we can mitigate their anxiety and help them settle into their new surroundings seamlessly.

Watch out for this pretty flower

Green thumbs are being asked to watch out for a beautiful but toxic flower that could be growing in their backyards.

What you need to know:
- Every part of the plant is poisonous, and can cause gastroenteritis, thirst, paralysis, blindness, and heart and kidney failure.
- This plant is hardy and normal pest control efforts are often not enough to eradicate.
- The cape tulip, growing up to 90cm high with one strap-like leaf, was introduced to Aotearoa in the 1940s, the Ministry for Primary Industries’ manager for pest management John Sanson said. “Cape tulips, like many of these invasive weeds, are really attractive ornamental species ...but they escape over people’s backyard fences and into pasture, as these things often do,”
- It was classified as a noxious plant in the late 1970s after they were discovered to cause harm to livestock and humans, even killing animals when too much as ingested.
- The salmon-pink flowers bloom for about two days a year between June and December, and have previously been an ornamental species for keen gardeners.

Sanson urged people who believed they had the weed growing on their property to leave it untouched and contact Biosecurity New New Zealand’s Exotic Pest and Disease on 0800 80 99 66.

Once a site was confirmed, manual removal or chemical treatment would start.
