COVID-19 Alert Level 3 - Where can I travel?

Shanna from Masterton District Council

Kia ora all, we've had a lot of questions through the Wairarapa Emergency Operations Centre about where people can travel within the "region" under Alert Level 3...and what the "region" actually is for Wairarapa!

The general rule of thumb is to keep it local as possible. The Wairarapa is part of the Greater Wellington "region" but you shouldn't travel further than you have to if you can avoid it.

That means you can travel to Wellington for work that cannot be done from home, or accessing essential services that you can't get locally. However, you shouldn't be travelling to Wellington to go to your favourite beach or for a change of scene.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
