Looking for an action-packed, adventure-based school holiday programme?

The Team from Sustainability Trust

Look no further than Wilderkids! Wilderkids is THE school holiday programme for young explorers aged 5 to 12.

The Spring 2019 programme is jam-packed with lots of great activities to feed the hungriest and most curious minds.

Here is a sneak peek of what we have in store for your Wilderkid(s) these school holidays.

For the master chef: In the forest, they will find, treats and tracks, unlike any kind. Your master chef will go foraging for ingredients for snacks and tea.

For the artist: Why be a regular artist when you can be a WILD artist? Why be an art critic when you can be an art critter! Wilderkids gives the little artist in your life and opportunity to make and create art.

For the architect/builder: Let's face it. Kids LOVE building stuff. Whether it's a hut, a hideaway, a bug hotel or a firepit. Wilderkids has all the bases covered.

For the explorer: Does your child remind you of Indiana Jones? Do they have a thirst for adventure, mystery, knowledge? Well, the entire Wilderkids programme is designed for them.

What are you waiting for?

Cost is $56 per day and there's a 10% discount for week-long bookings.

We also offer one $10 spot each day for any parent with a Community Services Card.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐Ÿ›ป๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

๐Ÿ’จ Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Itโ€™s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! ๐ŸŒง๏ธ Weโ€™ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.

In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!

The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! โ˜€๏ธ

Any local hidden spots or activities youโ€™d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! ๐Ÿ‘‡
