Schooling in Aotea
Hi
We've been checking up on where the Ministry of Education is up to with creating a plan to make sure there are enough primary school spaces for kids in and around Aotea. We know it's a growing concern for a lot families, and will continue to be so as Transmission Gully gets up and running.
We're writing an article and we'd like to include the thoughts from people in the area. So what do you think? What's the best solution here? Build more schools? Where? Tighten up zoning to stop kids from outside the area from coming over?
*Please put an NFP with your post if you'd rather your thoughts weren't possibly shared in a news story!*

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!
