Thank you to everyone who submitted questions about their sickly plant babies. Houseplants might be fashionable, but they can be tricky to get right. Whether it’s the wrong light, too much or too little water, or a pesky draft, it doesn’t take much for your prize peace lily to turn yellow or an infestation of bugs to set in.
We put some of your houseplant questions to the plant doctors from Kings Plant Barn to diagnose. Find their answers here.

• Have lived with the person practising psychotherapy for a period of more than five years during and/or after their training.
• Are over the age of 18 years

Please SHARE if you can as we really want to get the word out there.
Turning up is not a commitment and we really want anyone slightly interested to come along and find out what is a Menzshed and how do they work. We have the President of NZ Menzshed coming to the meeting who will be able to answer our questions.
The information evening (rather than a meeting) is this Thursday 25th - 7pm start in the Hornby Community Centre (they co-share the Hornby Library building) in Goulding Avenue behind Caltex/Dominoes Pizza etc.

“Although New Zealand is believed to have been the first country in the world to give women the right to sit in Parliament, it is one of the few which have consistently refused to elect a woman to its national assembly,” The Press wrote on September 14, 1933.
“Legislation permitting women to stand for Parliament was introduced in 1919 by the then Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. W. F. Massey, and subsequently passed.”
Lyttelton MP Elizabeth McCombs had just shattered that glass ceiling after a by-election, becoming New Zealand’s first woman MP.
She had previously run as the Labour candidate in Kaiapoi and Christchurch North and became the Lyttelton candidate in a by-election after the death of her husband, James, who had held the seat since 1913.
The Press noted that “Mrs McCombs’s majority is larger than any Mr McCombs secured during his whole 20 years in Parliament”.
The Press reported from a packed Returned Soldiers’ Association Hall in Lyttelton.
“‘This is the proudest moment of my life,’ said Mrs McCombs, ‘but yet one of the saddest. You all know that my husband wished more than anything else on earth that I should sit in Parliament, and we had both hoped we should sit there together. I cannot help feeling a tinge of bitterness that it was not to be.’
McCombs died before the 1935 election, and was succeeded by her son, Sir Terence McCombs, who held the Lyttelton seat until 1951.

They are dedicated to supporting migrant women in Christchurch with a safe and welcoming space to relax and connect.
They have started a Tuesday afternoon social session, 3.30pm – 5pm here at the Hornby Community Care Centre (next to Hornby Library). It is a casual group where you can get to meet other migrant women in your area and chat over a cup of tea or coffee. They will be also running an after-school session for kids at the same time so please bring you children along for some games and crafts.
AMMA already hosts English classes in other areas and is considering running another English class at the Hornby Community Centre if there is enough interest.
