Oxford Gallery will host our popular Life Drawing sessions again this May and June. Spaces are limited so early booking is advised!
Life Drawing is the practice of drawing the human figure from a live model and teaches observation and drawing skills. This course is open to beginners and experienced artists. You don’t have to know ‘how to draw’ to draw the human figure. You will not be judged on your drawing here; even the most experienced artists are learning, so if you feel like challenging yourself creatively and learning a new skill, you are welcome!
Artist and tutor Casey will suggest exercises to try or you can be self-directed.
✅ Drawing boards, easels, newsprint and sugar paper provided.
✅ Bring your own drawing materials (for beginners we recommend a soft pencil – 2B or softer – or charcoal). Experienced artists may bring their preferred materials.
✅ Tea and coffee provided
✅ Thursdays 7-9pm (please arrive at 6.45 for prompt 7pm start)
📆 19, 26 May and 2,9,16 June
🎫 Ticket options:
$120 for a block of 5 sessions
OR
Buy individual sessions at $30 per session.

MUST help with clearing up what you dont want into my trailer for the burn pile. Limbs branches trunks small medium large. Tractor with FEL ( and driver) on site for assistance in pulling trunks out of the piles the loggers piled it in and loading large blocks onto your trailer.. There are about 6 burn piles that cant not burnt where they are so whilst I am pulling them apart to move them to burn elsewhere ( the loggers didnt listen to where I needed them putting!) there is a lot of good wood in amongst them ready for burning this year. ( Been down since Sept 2020) Need 4 WD vehicle preferably to cross paddocks as I dont want any 2 WD getting stuck and ruining the paddocks Spent two years repairing the paddocks after the loggers churned it all up with tracked vehicles! and I dont have time to tow people out. This is a working farm so any chilren need CLOSE supervision ( chainsaws tractors and powerful electric fences) but there are many cones that can also be collected if you want to bring bags.

If your heat pump is not pushing much air flow into your home, it could be because your heat pump filter is blocked.
As a guide, you should clean the filter every 8 to 12 weeks depending on how often you use your heat pump.
It is a very easy process and something you can do yourself.

A Canterbury community health service provider believes the Government is ignoring rural healthcare inequities despite problems continuing to be voiced “loud and clear”.
Concerns continue to mount around the omission of rural communities within the Government's health reform roll-out, which has dismayed rural health leaders.
The Pae Ora Healthy Futures Bill was recently considered at a parliamentary select committee and did not list rural people as a priority population group.
Canterbury health service agency Waitaha Primary Health said rural health outcomes trail those of national urban populations and the outcomes are even worse for Māori.
Chief executive Bill Eschenbach called upon the Government to prioritise rural health in the planned legislation and to urgently address problems rural communities were facing.
“These inequities are not a surprise and as an organisation we have been proactive in working with our national partners to ensure the voice of rural people in terms of health outcomes is heard loud and clear,” he said.
Some 750,000 rural people generated 50% of New Zealand’s GDP, he said.
He added rural disparities were frequently highlighted in Heather Simpson’s Health and Disability Review, the same report which proposed centralisation of the health sector.
“We note that rural disparities or inequities were highlighted in the review 84 times,” he said.
“Waitaha’s concern is that if rural is not identified in the legislation, will Health NZ and the Maori Health Authority be accountable for rural health outcomes.”
There was further unease around the current health workforce, which has “retracted over recent years”, with access to health interventions not being as readily available to those in rural areas.
“These two issues need to be addressed now,” Eschenbach said.
Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey echoed concerns of rural voices being lost in the transition.
“As the Canterbury District Health Board gets disestablished there is a real threat that rural and regional voices will be lost in this new mega health entity run out of Wellington,” he said.
Four hospitals in Canterbury were temporarily closed in March as the Omicron outbreak bore down on the country, sparking community fears the move was permanent.
An after hours medical facility in Rangiora also remains entrenched in the planning stages after it was first confirmed in 2020.
“Waimakariri residents should be worried that commitments to open both after-hours and Oxford hospitals could be overlooked in the restructure,” Doocey said.

What will Greater Christchurch look like when one million people live here? Where will the big roads be, where will all the housing be built?
These are the questions that fall to a committee of Canterbury mayors, Ngāi Tahu, and transport authorities. Now it is set to be bolstered, with Housing Minister Megan Woods and Local Government Minister Nanaia Mahuta getting a seat at the table.
The Government is teaming up with local authorities to plan what Greater Christchurch, the area covering Waimakariri, Christchurch City, and Selwyn, will look like in 30 years time.
Called Whakawhanake Kāinga (Urban Growth Partnership) Committee, it will be tasked with determining how the region can grow sustainably – ensuring that as the population increases, carbon emissions and house prices head the other way.
The first meeting will be on May 13. Continue reading here.
