Xmas Presents ...Umm! How about an art course gift card?

Megan from MEGANZ School of Visual Arts

Hi Everyone,
If you are trying to think of different Xmas presents to give to family members and friends, then how about a gift card for an art Course for a term? The gift that could last a lifetime.

At MEGANZ School of Visual Arts, we teach drawing, painting, and sculpture to tweens, teens, and adults. Students can work on their own project ideas, at their own pace and from any level of ability.
We have afternoon, evening, and Saturday class times available.
But be quick as the classes are filling up fast.

Check out our website www.vizart.co.nz... for details on the course times and fees and text Megan to either get a gift card and/or book a course for Term 1, 2024. And take a look at our student's work on our Instagram page - @meganzsva

Hope to work with you on your creative ideas in the new year.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
