Brigid discovers the heart-wrenching story of hundreds of Polish children fleeing war torn Europe. Between 1944 and 1949 a camp just outside the small Wairarapa town of Pahiatua was home to 700 children and 100 adult carers. We meet some of the Polish children of Pahiatua, who tell us the amazing story of how they escaped the Nazis and the Soviets, spent almost two years in a Siberian work camp and then a Red Cross station in Persia. Can Heritage Rescue help the local museum honour those we gave sanctuary to, many of whom now call themselves Kiwis?

From there it crossed the pond where it now contaminates wool, breaks shearing combs, cause skin irritations and dermatitis, and poisons stock – a true nasty!
With fifteen active control sites in the Wairarapa, some farms have thousands of plants on them! However, the plant is still relatively rare in the Wellington region and we plan to keep it that way.
Our pest plants team work hard on the fifteen sites to minimise the impact of this pest on people and livestock.
So if you see a plant with hundreds of straw-coloured burs, each 1.0–1.5 cm long, with many yellow hooked spines you’ve probably got Bathurst bur and our team wants to know about it and they’ll control it for free – to put those Aussies in their place!
Contact pest.plants@gw.govt.nz if you think you've seen it.
