Global Creative Therapy & Connection

Michelle from Ponsonby

If you've been following lately you may have noticed that some inspiring Colour Our Story events have been taking place across parts of Africa thanks to our amazing global ambassadors in Uganda, Cameroon and Sierra Leone.

Our children's global colouring in books are designed to empower, inspire and create a deeper sense of connection, empathy, curiosity and global citizenship through the therapeutic joy of creativity.

The kids got to experience reading stories and colouring in drawings created by other kids all across the globe. In response they dived in their own hearts and minds, sharpened their pencils and got to work creating their own powerful drawings and stories that they wished to share with everyone.

So now's the time where we get to start preparing that beautiful content for our special colouring in books (made by kids, for kids, all across the world) and we've always believed that should be a special, fun event in itself too. So easy, so rewarding and no skills or experience needed! Everything will be provided.

Event: fb.me...

It's been a while since I've organised one of these so it will be quite a celebratory event with a few extra surprises and I'll be brewing up a delicious batch of my favourite mulled wine with nibbles, relaxing music, videos and others logging in from across the globe to hang out with us for an evening of purposeful and therapeutic fun... connecting creatively with like minded souls.

AT COLOUR OUR STORY OUR AIM IS TO SUPPORT CHILDREN IN NEED OF THE THERAPY AND JOY OF CREATIVITY THROUGH GLOBAL EXCHANGES, OPPORTUNITIES AND SUPPLIES.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Lost cat - Mt Eden

Anna from Mount Eden

Still missing my girl 😔

Evie is a 13 year old grey tortie - quite pretty colouring (mainly grey with caramel) with some cream on her chest. No white on her at all. She has been missing since 16 November, 2023.

Please take a screenshot of this post so you have photos and my number handy in case you see her.

She likes people but might not let you pick her up so please take a video or photo if you see her and call me asap on 021 072 0933 (Anna).

She’s quite lean and small to medium size. When she’s happy she ‘talks’ ❤️ De-sexed and microchipped.

Last seen in Mont Le Grand Rd, Mt Eden. Please check your garage, shed, garden and under deck and house.

Apparently cats who are hiding don’t meow so please look carefully even if you don’t hear her. Thank you so much 🙏
