Parents can expect to see changes at Mangakōtukutuku College as a government-appointed helper gets to work.

That’s the message from limited statutory manager Dr Shane Edwards, who has taken over several responsibilities of the Hamilton school’s board.

According to one parent, communication had already improved since a list of behavioural issues, including a lunchtime brawl, put the newly merged school under the spotlight.

Wondering what temperatures will be like this week?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Waikato’s spate of brutally cold nights is over for the next week at least, according to MetService forecasters.

With a large anticyclone shifting off the North Island and heading into the Pacific Ocean, cloud and some rain will return to the region towards the middle of the week.

Green thumbs are being asked to watch out for a beautiful but toxic flower that could be growing in their backyards.

What you need to know:
- Every part of the plant is poisonous, and can cause gastroenteritis, thirst, paralysis, blindness, and heart and kidney failure.
- This plant is hardy and normal pest control efforts are often not enough to eradicate.
- The cape tulip, growing up to 90cm high with one strap-like leaf, was introduced to Aotearoa in the 1940s, the Ministry for Primary Industries’ manager for pest management John Sanson said. “Cape tulips, like many of these invasive weeds, are really attractive ornamental species ...but they escape over people’s backyard fences and into pasture, as these things often do,”
- It was classified as a noxious plant in the late 1970s after they were discovered to cause harm to livestock and humans, even killing animals when too much as ingested.
- The salmon-pink flowers bloom for about two days a year between June and December, and have previously been an ornamental species for keen gardeners.

Sanson urged people who believed they had the weed growing on their property to leave it untouched and contact Biosecurity New New Zealand’s Exotic Pest and Disease on 0800 80 99 66.

Once a site was confirmed, manual removal or chemical treatment would start.

Debate swirled over the weekend in the wake of Finau’s crunching tackle on Waratahs first-five Tane Edmed in the third minute of the Chiefs’ Super Rugby Pacific win in Sydney last Friday.
