Seed bomb workshops for kids - be prepared to get your hands dirty!

Jane Carruthers from Ngā Manu Nature Reserve

In conjunction with EnvironSchools
For the season of celebrating the Maori New Year, signalled by Puanga and Matariki whetu, we are offering two Seed-bomb making sessions for tamariki/rangatahi. These sessions are related to two whetu, Tupuanuku and Tupuarangi, of the Matariki Constellation/Kahui Whetu.
We will make acknowledgements to these whetu as part of the session.

Bring a container to take away your dirt bombs for throwing in your garden at home.
• Saturday 15 July, 2.30pm and
• Sunday 16 July, 11.30am

Koha entry. Admission to the reserve not included. Bookings not required.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.

Hi,
Does anybody have packaging boxes ( not banana boxes) ? I thought I would ask before I go and purchase them.
Thanks.

Paper Shredding

James from Waikanae

I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.

Just let me know if you want some.
