Have a read and see how they did it, and while you're at it have a listen to our third episode of First Rung, the podcast for first home buyers for a little more inspiration.

Akaroa, a quaint village nestled in the South Island’s Banks Peninsula, is home to some of New Zealand’s rarest wildlife.

Seeing the likes of the nationally vulnerable Hector’s Dolphin, little blue penguins and fur seals in their natural habitat is something special.

There are numerous ways to get on to Akaroa Harbour and today we head out on Akaroa Dolphins’ rather swanky boat.

The company boasts a 98 per cent chance of seeing Hector’s dolphins, so expectations are high.

Hey neighbours,

Christchurch City Council has released a new version of its free wheelie bin app as residents continue to struggle to recycle correctly.

The updated app sends reminders about which bins need to be put out for kerbside collection each week and provides information about which items belong in the red, yellow and green bins.

It also includes a searchable database that allows you to search a rubbish item and see which bin it should go in.

The app can be downloaded for free from the Apple Store and Google Play.

If you already have the app downloaded it should update automatically over the next few days.

Do you think this will make it easier to recycle correctly?
