Kia ora koutou to all my friends in New Zealand,

Christmas is just around the corner, and I’m getting jolly excited - I hope you are too!

I’ve been working closely with the little elves at Barnardos New Zealand this year, and they’re going to help me to get in touch with all my favourite boys and girls during the festive season.

For a suggested donation of $10 or more, a child you know can receive a personalised letter from me! Imagine their delight at getting a letter in the post box, and their huge smiles when they see that I’ve written to them personally.

So please, spread the magic of Christmas this year and help Barnardos to support vulnerable children in New Zealand.

To order a personalised Letter from Santa for a child or children you know, go to the Barnardos website – www.barnardos.org.nz and click on the Letter from Santa link on the homepage.

Our North Pole mailing station is open from 1 October 2013 to 15 December 2013. Please be sure to fill in all the details so that my elves know exactly where to post the letter to!

Thanks for your support and have a magical Christmas!

Your friend,

Santa

Gordon Campbell: On Why We Can’t Survive Two More Years Of This

Remember those silent movies where the heroine is tied to the railway tracks or going over the waterfall in a barrel? Finance Minister Nicola Willis seems intent on portraying herself as that damsel in distress. According to Willis, this country’s current economic problems have all been caused by the spending schemes cooked up by the dastardly and long-departed Grant Robertson, in cahoots with Treasury. So don’t blame her for the current state of the New Zealand economy. We appear to be paying her over $300,000 a year to wring her hands and blame everyone else for the country’s plight.

SPCA: Survey Shows Government Lacks Mandate To Repeal Live Export Ban

“Sending live animals on boats into volatile conditions to destinations with poor animal welfare standards is not progressive, lucrative, or likely to stimulate the economy,” says SPCA Chief Scientific Officer, Dr Arnja Dale.

Peace Action Ōtautahi: Bridge Of Remembrance Peace Protest

Some Christchurch residents worry the expansion of NIOA into the city, likely along with the companies they work with, will result in the tradings of war criminals and war profiteers happening on their doorstep.

National Wetland Trust: Public Asked To Help Prevent Fires In Wetlands This Summer

Wetlands play a critical role in the environment, helping to protect and improve water quality, preventing flooding and providing habitat for unique species of plants and animals some of which are rare. Maintaining water levels in wetlands and avoiding large fires is important if we are to reach our carbon reduction targets.

Lillian Hanly, RNZ: The Year In Politics - Stories That Dominated The Headlines In 2024

The year saw nationwide protests, swathes of legislation repealed and introduced, crackdowns on crime and some stern words to local councils.

Waikato Regional Council: Studies Open Door To Mercury Islands Underwater World

“These surveys are the most comprehensive study we now have looking at the biodiversity and habitats of these islands. This provides a valuable reference for future marine management of the Mercury Islands,” said Waikato Regional Council Coastal Science Team Leader Dr Michael Townsend.

Office of the Privacy Commissioner: Christmas Is About Giving, But Don’t Give Up Your Privacy
