Myrtle Rust is a fungus that can destroy our native and taonga myrtle trees such as ramarama, pōhutukawa, mānuka and bottle brush. It has been dormant over the winter months due to the lower temperatures, but with spring now here Myrtle Rust could thrive and become easier to spot.

This workshop is good for beginners who want to finally get their gardens happening this season - we'll cover all the basics. It's also good for the more experienced: you'll leave having your complete planting and maintenance plan for the year sorted, PLUS your first tray of seedlings started - and all your questions answered. You can check out this and other workshops at www.therabbithole.co.nz... and book through the website if you wish. Would love to see you there!

There is a high demand for more engagement and consultation with community groups, and in general more engagement with the general public.
There were a number of people and groups looking for a more collaborative approach
GWRC should act as more of a facilitator rather than the practitioner, and assist in the coordination of community groups more. We should work with and support community groups.
We need to balance the wants of recreational hunters with the undertaking of pest control, and utilise these groups more.
We'll now go off and do some writing and come back to you with a draft early next year.
Many thanks,
The Biosecurity Team

These students are marginalised in schools whose primary focus is STEM and sport.
Many of these students suffer from depression and behavioural problems as a result. Specialist Arts Schools have very low to zero bullying and provide the type of learning environment that best supports creative young people.
We'd like to create a specialist Arts High School (think FAME) in the arts capital of New Zealand, Wellington!
The school would offer specialist training in Music, Drama, Dance, Visual and Digital/Media Arts.
We'd love your feedback during the planning process.
