Waikanae Arts and Crafts Society
Put aside those chores this Saturday (25 June) and come to our Demonstration Day showing arts and crafts in action from 10.00am to 2.00pm in our rooms, 27a Elizabeth Street, Waikanae (over the railway line). A great opportunity to find out what we do and what you may be interested in.
See you there!

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
