We have 5 caterpillars needing food. Does anyone have a spare swan plant we could buy or borrow please? Alternatively do you have a plant that we could transfer our caterpillars on to? Many thanks, Carol and Stewart, Roslyn Rd, Levin 367 3410.

Following a successful event in 2022, we are organising another Orange Bike Ride in Kāpiti this year, scheduled for 30 April. The Orange Bike Ride aims to promote cycling as a sustainable means of transport which helps us to address climate change through a standout and enjoyable family-oriented event connecting New Zealanders with the local Dutch communities in as many regions as possible across Aotearoa New Zealand.
Arriving from 9.30am in Otaihanga Domain the Start will be at 10am, with prize giving at 11.30am. Prizes are given for the best orange dressed bike and biker.
Dutch biscuits for everybody, plus games and activities for the children upon finishing the track, hosted by the council.

When I changed to full time I taught years 7 & 8 as I wanted to be with them all day & take them camping when camps didn't provide meals. There were no photocopiers or computers. I provided individual workbooks for students by making carbon copies of the work I designed & using a blackboard. Class sizes were about 40 pupils. No assistance for a partially sighted & a hearing impaired student or learning delayed. Students were grouped for maths & spelling.
I spent Sunday afternoons at school & evenings, after my children were in bed, preparing lessons & marking work. BUT, there are numerous benefits to teachers: being able to work near home (saving travel expenses & time); having your children at the same school; after 3 pm having your children play outside while you work on; generous holidays (I was often sick at the start for a few days). Teachers "Count your blessings...." (an old adage).
Steel Bunk or 2 single beds complete. Includes 2 Foam mattresses and a second side frame not shown in photo. Average condition. Measurements 1990mm long x 990mm wide. Pick up from Waikanae Beach. Ph 0274439160
