The great news is that the Trust has been chosen as one of three Community Group finalists. To win we need to get as many votes as possible to enable to Trust to send out 10 Bumblebee Hives to schools throughout the country. The children can then study the bumblebees and learn to understand the importance of their roll in pollination of food crops and their place in our ecosystem. The schools will also receive a Cannon camera to take photos of bumblebees that will then be loaded onto the Bumblebee Trust website www.nzbct.org.nz... for everyone to see.

We need your votes!!

We have high standards and our bakers do too, which is why there are multiple quality checks in place at the bakery and only the best looking buns make the cut.

We use less than a teaspoon of sugar in each of the buns which gives them the colour and texture that makes them perfect for burgers.

NO RESPECT.

Eileen from Papamoa Beach

Did anyone listen to the appalling rant from a resident of the Ramada Hotel facility in Auckland. A resident (who by the way he sounded probably hasn't been a NZer for that long ) telling a pilot who sounded like a NZer who was checking in to the hotel to go back where he came from.

A resident (who by the way he sounded probably hasn't been a NZer for that long ) telling a pilot who sounded like a NZer who was checking in to the hotel to go back where he came from. How dare that man speak to the pilot who is risking his own health to bring NZers and others back into our Country. The pilot to his credit remained calm and polite. These front line people do not need more stress added to their day than they already have. Someone should be telling that man he needs to apologies to that pilot, I was appalled because that behaviour is definately not the "New Zealand" way.
