The big busy business of school holiday programmes

Matthew Dallas Reporter from Manawatū Standard

Hi neighbours,
The myriad of options for school holiday programmes these days is incredible, both in terms of the activities offered and the range in cost. We'd love to talk to parents about how they navigate through it. How do you find the right one for your child? What are the most important factors? Please comment below or email: alex.loo@stuff.co.nz
Write DNP if you don't want comments to be published elsewhere.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
