You've heard of a class of students, a pack of dogs, a herd of cows, and probably a school of fish. These are collective nouns -- a group of people, animals or things.
We would love to hear of others, comment below.

Do you know someone sharing the veggies they've grown with their neighbours? Perhaps locals restoring a park in the area to bring back birds, or a group of neighbours doing a great job in their community garden. Nominate them today!
Click here and tell us why they deserve to be this year's Ryman Healthcare Gardener of the Year.

What's a Crop Swap I hear you ask?
In Crop Swap, backyard gardeners meet on a regular basis to share locally grown and homemade food, exchange gardening knowledge and build relationships. Crop Swaps are beneficial not only for the natural environment, they are a space to connect, enhance the quality of life for the individual and help build well connected communities that are based on generosity and fairness.
We meet on the first Saturday of the month at Merrilands Domain Hall at 4-5pm, come along with any garden produce surplus, fruit, veg, seedlings, etc, or home baking, jams, pickles etc and swap them for items other swappers have brought. A meet begins with finding a space on a table to add your items, have a mooch around to see what everyone else has brought, have a chat to like minded people, gain or impart some greenfingered knowledge to others. at 4:30 we ring the bell and swapping begins, have a walk around, take a bit of what you fancy, being mindfull that some people cannot move as fast as others.
We ask for a gold coin donation to help cover the cost of hiring the hall.
We have an email list which sends out a reminder the week before the event, if you would like to be included on this list please email me at russ.wendy.nz@gmail.com

With Covid-19 still a very real risk, people who are unwell are told to stay home, and to keep any sickly kids home too - but what if you don't have any more sick leave owing?
Most Kiwis are entitled to five days of sick leave a year, but some - often those in lower paid jobs - get less.

New Zealand’s minimum sick leave allowance is one of the lowest in the OECD. In Australia they get 10 days, in most European countries it’s even more.
Should Kiwis be entitled to more sick leave?
