An update on our Education Day this Saturday
Irish Interest Group - Lower North Island
An update on our Education Day this Saturday - sadly, our speaker Kathryn Patterson is unwell and has had to cancel. We plan to have her back next year. Jill Williams, a Fellow of the Irish Genealogial Research Society, originally from Cork and now based in Edinburgh, will be presenting to us instead (live via Zoom). Jill has been researching and teaching family history for many years and we're delighted she's helping us out at such short notice.

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!
