NewSplash and the Wai Care Annual Report – two great reads…
Looking for a bit of light reading while enjoying the long evenings as summer approaches? If so, look no further than these two publications that are hot off the press. You can either click on the links for a PDF version or see your Co-ordinator for a hard copy.
NewSplash
The Wai Care NewSplash newsletter has great stories from across the city and comes to you twice a year.
In the November 2008 newsletter we highlight three key areas:
- Actions that groups are taking like rubbish and replanting projects
- The creative side of Wai Care showing new things that have been developed to help get the message out there about waterway health
- Life in our streams including some surprising finds
Left - adult stonefly and right - juvenile stonefly found at
the Waikopua Stream, Manukau
If you have any great Wai Care projects that you think would be good to show in our next newsletter (April 2009), let your Co-ordinator know. We are also always keen for story ideas for our website so get thinking and get talking to us!
Annual Report
Our annual report provides a summary of the work that we have all been doing during the July 2007 – June 2008 financial year. As you read it you will see that there has been much happening in the programme, and it’s not just water quality monitoring.
Wai Care groups have been involved in a huge range of activities throughout the year from stencilling stormwater drains with messages to remind people that these drain to the sea, to creating murals, growing native seedlings and planting streambanks.
It’s all in the annual report so take time out to have a read.
