The Ministry of Education planned to fell the trees – five pōhutukawa and one Norfolk pine – at Campbells Bay School in Auckland early this year.
The plans prompted parents and local residents to launch a petition calling for the trees to be saved, and instead design a building which preserves them.
But this month, the Ministry of Education has shared new plans for the classroom block.
It will be set back an additional 4.5 metres from the school’s fence on Aberdeen Rd, meaning the six trees will remain, with some limited root reduction and canopy trimming.

A parcel has gone missing (reported to police) on 15th Feb from Unsworth Drive.
It was apparently delivered by NZ Post but we never saw it arrive.
Extensive investigations have led NZ Post to conclude that the item has been stolen from our letterbox.
The item was a custom printed sweatshirt that my son used his Christmas money to order from overseas.
If you happen to have come across it and you didn’t know where it was supposed to be delivered to, please contact me directly.
I’ve included a picture in case it was opened.
It’s unique, custom printed and a size small, so won’t be of much use to anyone else.
Hi Neighbours, Like many, Sir Ian Taylor learned only at the age of 68 about the Polynesian migrations across the Pacific Ocean. He hopes a new education website will inspire especially maori and pasifika kids they have innovation in their DNA. Did you know the stories? Read below:

And happiness, studies show, increases your productivity, which in turn, creates a positive contribution to society. Studies show one who is happy is more likely to vote, volunteer, participate in community, and respect law and order. “There is even evidence that happiness is contagious, so that happier people help others around them to become happier too. An extensive study in the British Medical Journal followed people over 20 years and found that their happiness affected others in their networks across ‘three degrees of separation’. In other words, how happy we are has a measurable impact on the mood of our friend’s friend’s friend,” says Williamson. We bring superheroes to smile. When do you get your superhero Bachmannsmile?

Modern-day treatment is usually non-surgical (injections or laser), and greatly improves a varicose vein sufferer’s quality of life.
Most health insurance companies cover varicose vein treatment but not cosmetic (thread vein) treatment.
At Vein & Laser Dr Elisabeth De Felice will see you for each of your appointments to ensure continuity of care.
