Santa's Workshop

Rob from Tamahere

The Hamilton Community Men's Shed offers men and women the opportunity to attend a supervised toy making workshop, to be held on five Thursday evenings from 7 to 9pm in November. Our shed is at the Ward Park Arts Complex, 2 Seddon Road.

The cost is $80 per person, covering all materials, (includes recycled Kauri timber) tools and tutor time. We will have samples and ideas of toys that you can make. Free membership of the shed to June 2019 is also included. Participants will be limited to the first 10 applicants.

The workshop is based on 'make and donate', with at least one toy to be given to our chosen charity, plus you will be able to make additional toys to keep for yourself.

Check out the course details on our Facebook page www.facebook.com...

Phone enquiries to Rob Hammington, 022 0077 627.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
