When will daylight saving time end?
Daylight Saving Time in Australia runs from the first Sunday in October to the first Sunday in April each year.
Kiwis observe DST from the last Sunday in September to the first Sunday in April.
Why do we have daylight saving?
Because the Earth is on a tilt, we are exposed to more sun during summer and less during winter.
That means the days are longer during the warmer months and shorter in the colder months.
Daylight saving is intended to make the most of those long daylight hours. It means an extra hour of light on summer evenings, rather than super early in the mornings when hardly anyone is awake to enjoy it.
