NEW MEMBERS NIGHT

Sally from Halswell

Canterbury Singers have a New Members night on Tuesday 16th July.
We're especially looking for LOW VOICES! Women with low voices to sing Alto or Men's tenor, and Men to sing Tenor Baritone or Bass!
So, if you are tired of straining to sing high melody parts or even Alto is too high for you, come and join us! We're a choir with a proud tradition of over 50 years entertaining audiences, but now after Covid and a number of retirements, we're looking for vibrant people to swell the ranks and magnify our sound!
So..... if you love to sing, can sing in tune, and hold a part, we want your voice! Come and join us as we start our new repertoire for our December Concert.
If you haven't sung in a choir for years, want a change from singing Acapella or other forms of music, come and be part of the joyful sould of a full choir accompanied by our talented pianist - Jean, and directed by our talented young Conductor Henry Nicholson,
Date: 16th July Arrive 7:15pm
Place: Chapel St Centre, Corner of Chapel St and Harewood Road Papanui

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
