THE MONTHLY TE HORO COUNTRY MARKET IS ON THIS SUNDAY
Where:- The Te Horo Community Hall
School Road, Te Horo
When:- Sunday 7 August 10am - 1pm
A truly friendly community country market where people gather to chat, browse, score a bargain, taste some goodies and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with friends in our popup cafe along with some yummy homemade treats.
There’s an impressive range of arts and crafts (Mosaic Mirrors, Scented Candles, Merino Goodies and quilts) natural skincare, produce (Olive Oil, Honey, Preserves etc), Junk For Joy - upcycled and repurposed furniture and homewares, Natural Health Supplements, Bric-a-Brac, books, plants, children's clothing, toys, Jigsaws and lots lots more.
And of course, there is our Seasonal Surplus stall where you can drop off surplus fruit and veges from your garden for sale - we sell it on your behalf and donate our percentage to local causes. Everyone wins and nothing gets wasted! There will be lots of oranges and lemons for your marmalade.
A great country market where you will find cheerful smiles and a lovely bunch of really friendly and hugely talented stallholders.
All are very very welcome - just don’t forget your masks (unless exempt).
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.3% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.1% No, I enjoy it
-
1.6% Other - I'll share below
Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.

Rain: We largely missed out again
The sun's out so I guess the 'storm' has passed. Unfortunately the little rain amounting to a mere 13mm around midnight won't do much for the drought conditions in Kapiti. Around 100mm would have been nice.
It's approaching 40 days since we had anything substantial. Perhaps there is more to come from the present event.
