Some of us are looking forward to an extra hour of sleep on Sunday morning but daylight saving isn't favoured by all.
On Sunday, New Zealand will turn its clocks back an hour from 3:00am to 2:00am.
This means brighter mornings and darker evenings as sunset and sunrise will take place an hour earlier than before.
But The Project's host Kanoa Lloyd is calling for daylight saving to end for good.
"Kids can't sleep, adults can't cope - it's a nuisance at best," she said on The Project Thursday.
And she's not alone.
Lobbying group Take Back The Clocks is calling for an end to daylight saving.
Founder Louis Houlbrooke told Newstalk ZB the change causes stress for Kiwis.
"It's really not necessary," he said.
"We're going to get an extra hour to sleep in, but for what? We'll be walking home in the dark."
Lloyd says changing the clocks is not fun, and it's also bad for us.
There are several reasons why daylight saving may be bad for your brain and health.
The desynchronisation of our body clocks has been linked to increased health risks such as depression, obesity, heart attack, cancer.
A shift in the sleep cycle also means there will be a higher risk of accidents on the road.
Auckland University research found motorists are more likely to cause accidents if there is a shift in the sleep cycle.
The research, based on data covering 12.6 million accident claims in New Zealand between 2005 and 2016, shows an increase in road accidents by 16 percent on Easter Sunday and 12 percent on Monday.
"The shift of just one hour in the body's daily wake and sleep cycle can disrupt sleep, resulting in feelings of drowsiness," the research stated.
Turning back the clock also means we get less sun exposure, which comes with health risks.
"Less sun means less vitamin D, and that means depression, fatigue, muscle pain and weak bones," Lloyd says.
"I think it should end for good. No more of this mad manipulation of time!"
