Are you grieving?
We are back!
Disclaimer: Grief is not limited to huge life tragedies and loss! Your grief could look like: losing a friendship, experiencing a breakup, death, family changes, moving away, changing/losing old parts of yourself, personality changes, or whatever you feel has brought up feelings of loss/disorientation. All flavours and variations of grief are welcome.

How do we bravely feel the truth of what is seemingly no longer, while transitioning into living a life honouring the newness in who we are becoming, after experiencing loss? Grief is a rite of passage into reconnection with our soul.
At ‘Glitter in Grief’, you are invited to experience a shift into this awareness as Soul-First Guide, Ellie Bambury, welcomes you into a whole new way of communing with your grief, through cultivating a relationship with your higher self and deeply transforming every relationship in your life.
We only ever grieve that which we authentically care for, right? Yet, sometimes, what we are actually grieving for can get lost in translation. Being able to recognise what gives our lives real substance will inspire us to pursue vibrant new beginnings, with deep holistic awareness.
>>> This event is designed to reignite you with your soul to move through grief with a deeper feeling of love & genuine connection, and ignite your desire to consciously step into the new, fresh way of being your soul is calling you towards.
A taste of what to expect:
> Discover Ellie’s enlightening new paradigm for accessing and expressing genuine feelings
> Explore how developing compassionate boundaries and communication skills helps us to co-create true safety, depth and sincerity in all of our relationships (which is crucial as we move through grief and change!)
> Rekindle your relationship with storytelling: You will have the opportunity to share your story and listen to others share theirs - if you’re not ready to share, then bearing witness to those who are can become a tonic for you.
> Learn how to ‘come home to yourself’
> Play with the future - let’s explore what your soul is calling you towards, as you move through your grief!
And more!

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

Late Summer Harvest!
Experience a sun-kissed day at Howick Historical Village, celebrating the last of summer's bounty. Explore how the season’s harvest was gathered, preserved, and enjoyed in the 1800s, before the season changed.
The end of summer was a time to enjoy long, warm, dry days but also to prepare before autumn crept in. Pantries were filled as food was preserved, boots were waterproofed, curtains rehung. Honey made by busy bees all summer, was extracted from the hives.
Join us to experience the gentle turning of the seasons, where work and pleasure met, and the closing days of summer were truly cherished! Churn cream into butter or attend a Victorian school lesson. See the blacksmiths and woodturners at work and learn the art of bookbinding. Meet the Village beekeeper in a talk at 2 pm. Taste fresh baking, hot from the coal range in Puhi Nui Homestead and the bread oven. Visit the sweet shop filled with old-fashioned lollies and fudge!
With games, crafts and performances by Morris dancers at 11:00 & 12:00, and the bagpipe band at 12 pm and plenty to entertain all ages, this will be a Live Day not to miss!
Admission: adult $18, student/senior $14, child $10, family $46. Child under 5 years, members & annual pass holders - free entry.
