This year's event runs from March 20 - 30th with the theme being 'The Great Plant Swap' as an easy way for neighbourhoods to grow stronger together.

Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

Bumblebee ride

Keith from Avonside - Dallington

Went for a ride because I can. Headed towards the sea, taking as many tracks as I came across them. Hoping from one to another, ended up going round the eatery to bridge St and the track was closed.

Christchurch International Airport is not doing daily Covid-19 saliva tests for its border staff – unlike Auckland Airport, which is privately funding a saliva testing pilot.

Airport boss Malcolm Johns said it was not a financial issue, but it was unnecessary as almost all international travellers were arriving via Auckland. The bigger risk in Christchurch was at managed isolation and quarantine (MIQ) facilities.

Do you think saliva testing should be offered to Christchurch border staff?

Fond memories

Bull Rush, and rounders, the cricket stump with a piece of bike tube rubber holding the tennis ball so as those not too proficient with a bat had a good opportunity to take a swing and run and hope for a home run. The wednesday bus trip to the Normal school for cooking and woodwork lessons (well there was segregation but not as we now NO it.)
And when we got home we could use the milk bottle tops to make pom poms and provide our own entertainment. Ah yes I remember them well.
