Kudos to The Link Pathway Trust.
All their mahi is amazing and has resulted in at least one thing good resulting from the July storm event.

Great to see Marlborough becoming a hub for innovation.

Sounds Air is on track to become the first in Australasia to fly a zero emission electric airplane flight with passengers.

Did you know this is how the sun comes up in Marlborough every day? ;)

This is how the sun actually gets up each morning. A guy on a digger, at the Wairau Diversion river mouth, actually picks it up.

Have a great day :)

Wow - feeling so grateful to live here with humpback whales on our doorstep.

A surprise encounter with several humpback whales was a spectacular end to a day out for two Nelson fishermen.

So impressive to see Marlborough youth standing up to be a voice for youth at Council level in Marlborough and speaking to youth issues as part of the Long Term Plan consultation process in Council chambers.
You rock!

We're so proud of Lachlan, Ethan, Charlotte, Molly, Tamara & Jarrah for stepping up to speak on behalf of Marlborough Youth Council to have their say on the 2021 - 2031 Long Term Plan Consultation Document.
Six young people from Marlborough Boys' and Girls' Colleges and Queen Charlotte College in Picton spoke on the issues that mattered to them. One of the submitters, Tamara Livingstone from the Girls’ college, said it was an enjoyable and exciting experience. “I was a bit nervous going and doing a submission for the first time in front of the Council; however the councillors made it really easy and a positive environment to be in,” she said.
The Marlborough Youth Council (MYC) is made up of a team of diverse young people of secondary school age, from varying backgrounds and ethnic origins.
