What should we name our wind?
Hi neighbours, a historian says it is time to name Wellington's wind. Kaumātua Kura Moeahu from iwi Te Āti Awa said he had named two types in a haka - te hau mātakataka, referred to trees being filled and roofs lifted the second, te hau āwhiowhio, was connected to whirlwinds and tornados. What do you think our wind should be called? Share your thoughts below.

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!

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
