Enrolling for Term 1 - Art Development courses for tweens, teens and adults
Happy New Year everyone,
Back into again for 2024. This year is going to be a good one, I can feel it.
MEGANZ School of Visual Arts is now in the process of enrolling new students for Term 1.
We accept tweens, teens, and adults in our mixed-aged classes.
My daughter Greta Umbers and I are planning some cool art
projects we can start the year with. Then we will open it up and follow each student's unique path and ideas, helping them to create what is in their mind's eye.
We have various class times/days available to choose from, so
come along and book a 20-minute meet-and-greet appointment before the courses begin and we will explain how we work and what you will need.
We are based in Cockle Bay, (opposite Howick College).
Classes begin from the 30th of January for 8 weeks, however, you can enroll any time throughout the terms.
Check out our website for details - www.vizart.co.nz...
Look forward to meeting and working with you.
Cheers
Megan Murphy

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
