DESCRIPTION:

Daylight Savings in New Zealand commences on the Last Sunday of September (Spring Forward) and ends on the 1st Sunday of April (Fall Back).

Daylight Savings in New Zealand commences on the Last Sunday of September (Spring Forward) and ends on the 1st Sunday of April (Fall Back).

Move the clock one hour ahead at 2 AM in September or one hour back in April at 2 AM.

The saying, “spring forward, fall back,” is an excellent way to remember, and it works in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres as the seasons.

Benjamin Franklin was the first to propose daylight savings time in 1784. Modern DST was established in 1895. Throughout history, several variations ranged from 30 minutes to two hours.

Not everyone observes DST, which can make setting appointments very challenging. The primary purpose of DST is to make better use of daylight hours for farming, early morning activities (such as children walking to school in the light instead of dark), and saving energy.

The closer one lives to the North and South Pole, the longer the period of daylight in the summer months.
