Hello neighbours,
It’s coming up to spring, and with everyone stuck at home in Covid lockdown, what better time to get the garden in order? NZ Gardener editor Jo McCarroll and Jack Hobbs, manager of the Auckland Botanic Gardens, are live on Stuff now to answer all your gardening questions.

Smiles from lots of walkers....Well done to owners.

Hi Neighbourly folk.
It is easy to take the police for granted but under Level Four they have a tough job.
Sergeant Cameron Cross is one of those frontline staff keeping us safe.
If you see the police in your neighbourhood dont forget to give them a wave.
Doctor Maggie of Normandale is a buzy lady, keeping teddy and the neighbours under her watchful eye and SMILES all round.
Todays walk and Doctor Maggie Lockdown is chomping at the bit to go skiing. We all know how she feels.
Well done neighbours for your daily inspiration.

Children love celebrating their birthday but with social distancing and bubbles birthday parties are no go under lockdown.
When Emery Maclean set out on her morning lockdown walk with mum Abby Vogel and big sister Avah she quickly realised this one was extra special.
Within minutes the 4-year-old spotted a collection of balloons tied to a gate – and the shocked girl was told by her mum they were for her birthday.
It is lovely to see neighbours pitching in to help the youngster. If you have a birthday or a especial anniversary (wedding, 21st etc), have you thought about how you are going to celebrate it?
It’s big, it’s bold, it’s beautiful, and it’s coming!

It is also a fantastic time for those of you working from home to check in on your set-ups, and make sure you are doing everything you can to limit the postural stressors on spine. Check out our video below from lockdown last year to remind yourself on how to set-up a spine-friendly workstation at home!
Couple this with daily movement, good food, water and rest. 🏃🥦💦😴

Wade Peek was recently named Plastics Apprentice of the Year, is definitely one to watch. With two qualifications under his belt, he’s been earmarked as a future plastics industry leader.
He hopes to one day start his own manufacturing business and says: "I really want to pass on what I have learnt to support apprentices in their training. I also want to be able to teach people outside of the plastics industry about what we do, as I truly believe we can't solve any of the really important environmental issues that surround plastic unless as many people as possible understand it."
If you are thinking of signing up for an apprenticeship, get in touch with us here
