Planting and Weeding at Appleton Park Sunday 12 May 2-4pm
Help beautify the entrance to Karori !
Hi everyone - we'd love to have you come and help with planting and weeding at Appleton Park on Sunday 12 May from 2-4 pm. We're working on the bush edge below the escarpment between the park itself and Birdwood Street above. This is part of a really important bird corridor between Zealandia and Otari Wilton's Bush.
Please bring a spade, and rakes (for tradescantia removal) and grubbers are really helpful too. Safe for children because its largely flat and away from the road!
If you can do some work any time before then - (the more weeds we clear the more we'll be able to plant on the 12th!) then please get in touch with me at andy.foster@wcc.govt.nz
Organised by Karori Kaitiaki Inc (KAKA) You can find out more about us or sign up so we can keep in contact on www.facebook.com... or Karori.kaitiaki@gmail.com
Thank you for your help!
💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?
It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’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! ☀️
Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇
🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?
(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
