Hi there Cantabrians,
We recently caught up with Christchurch residence Helen Coker, the 2015 GARDENA Gardener of the Year. She talks about her experience in the competition, and ticks off the many reasons to nominate the most awesome gardener you know.
Heard today from someone who works for HNZ that our great mayors sister just bought up a bunch of state houses to use as private rentals. These homes are already occupied. She got them for $250,000 each which is really cheap. This is back door dealing and was wondering why where not offered to … View moreHeard today from someone who works for HNZ that our great mayors sister just bought up a bunch of state houses to use as private rentals. These homes are already occupied. She got them for $250,000 each which is really cheap. This is back door dealing and was wondering why where not offered to those living in them first. Was told she had the choice of all at same price regardless how big and what state. She chose the best. Talk about corruption. Used the fact her sister is mayor of Chch to get in through back door

Do you want to challenge yourself by learning a new language? At Papanui High School we are offering a course for beginners in French Language aimed at developing a deeper understanding of French culture and language especially useful for those who are planning to travel to France. The focus will largely be on speaking and listening although some time will be spent on basic written French as well. Topics covered will include greeting, home and town, food and wine, travel and holidays, and weather. Course members thinking of spending some time in France will find the course particularly useful as time will be spent discussing the delights of French culture and some possible travel itineraries.

Copied and pasted on behalf of Virginia from Spreydon (who is Nate's Mum). Like she said if we all just pledged $5 dollars they would easily get to their goal and beable to start this venture. How exciting for them and for Christchurch.
Can we do it as a community and help this get up … View moreCopied and pasted on behalf of Virginia from Spreydon (who is Nate's Mum). Like she said if we all just pledged $5 dollars they would easily get to their goal and beable to start this venture. How exciting for them and for Christchurch.

Hi to all you wonderful Neighbourly folk
My son, Nate, and his wife, Alyssa, are working hard to raise $25000 to help start the first every cat cafe in South Island right here in Christchurch!
They only have 1 week to go to raise the last $8000 and so I'm spreading the word about their crowd-funding project where people can pledge from just $5.00. Every pledge has a corresponding reward. Pledges will only become donations when the $25000 goal is reached.
Every pledge will be greatly appreciated and help to make a wonderful new place for people to meet, have a cuppa and something delicious to eat and interact with Cat Rescue cats and kittens - you could also give a special, forever home to one of the cats or kittens that will be available for adoption.
Check out the Catnap Cafe crowdfunding project and facebook page in the links below.
Many thanks
Victoria
