Please meet Alyce Read of Nelson, who uses her houseplant collection to connect with others and help them overcome mental health challenges. "You wouldn’t take a plant and put it in a dark corner and fail to water it and expect it to thrive. So we should look at ourselves that way," she says. "If we are not thriving in the way that we would wish, it might not be any fault of ours, it might be the conditions that we are under."

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, build a free community library for your street, buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re spreading kindness this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Now, for the photographers, you will also be spoilt if you are a macro or landscape photographer, Lesley will work with you on how to capture some stunning images and even if you are a smart phone user, you will come away with some new ideas on composition.

Entry to our Rumaki unit, Samoan bilingual class and French bilingual class is by application.
Please telephone Sweet Bromwich on 846-7534 or email enrol@kowhai.school.nz should you require more information.
OUT OF ZONE (FOR 2022 ACADEMIC YEAR)
Each year the school will analyse the projected in-zone enrolment figures and decide how many places we can offer to students who live outside our zone. If we receive more applications than we have places, we will conduct a ballot to select these students.
All out of zone applications must be received before the deadline, Wednesday 1 September. There are Ministry of Education rules and guidelines about how this process is run - you can read more about them at the Ministry’s website https://parents.education.govt.nz/primary-school/schooling-in-nz/enrolment-schemes-zoning. Our Māori, Samoan and French language classes qualify as 'special programmes' under these guidelines.
If your child is accepted via the ballot please let us know as soon as possible if you will take up the offer. We start planning for staffing and resources well before 2022 so we require firm numbers on our 2022 roll.
Kōwhai Open Mornings
WEDNESDAY 4TH AUGUST & THURSDAY 5TH AUGUST 2021
We have two days where we invite our local contributing schools to come to Kōwhai so that their students can see what they can expect to experience if they enrol at Kōwhai. Small groups visit each area of the school where there will be a short presentation around one aspect of our programme or school life.
Parents are welcome to attend with their child. Our Kōwhai Parent Information Evening will take place on Thursday 12 August - 7 pm to 8 pm. Parents are invited to attend this event where our leadership team will present information about all aspects of our school.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Please contact enrol@kowhai.school.nz if you need more information.

Restaurant Month is back for another year, set to bolster the Auckland culinary scene by offering discounted dishes and unique events for the entire month of August.
Gastronomes can expect 31 days of specially curated menus at the value-for-money price points of $25, $40 or $55+.
Restaurants included span those from the waterfront to the CBD, and from stalwarts such as Euro, Botswana Butchery and Odettes Eatery, to the newcomers and the underdogs.
Viv Beck, Heart of the City chief executive, said this year’s lineup is “more world-class than ever” thanks to the “inspiring lineup of chefs”, some of whom have recently returned to Auckland from stints overseas.

It’s a welcome return to New Zealand for the Red Bull Flugtag competition, which last graced our shores in 2004 when it was hosted in Wellington.
The competition will see amateur aviators design, build and then fly contraptions in a bid to be crowned winner.
The thousands of people set to descend upon Wynyard Quarter to see the event are likely to keep business booming for local hospitality hotspots.
