CORGIS IN WGTN SANTA PARADE

Michael from Trentham

Wellington's Santa Arrival Parade will occur on Saturday December 16 starting at 11.30am.

The parade will go from the Herd Street car parking area near Clyde Quay Wharf and move on the outer of Waitangi Park.

Wellington Welsh Corgi Club has been exclusively invited to take part.

The club is looking to muster a good number of Pembroke and Cardigan Corgis for this fun event. Non- club members are encouraged to join in. The crowd just loves seeing Corgis as Santa's little furry helpers.

Best dressed Corgi and best dressed handler and Corgi will be rewarded with prizes. All participating Corgis receive BlackHawk treats.

For further info ring 021 614 821.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
