Aaron from Chartwell

đŸŽȘKIDS MARKET STALL HOLDERS WANTEDđŸŽȘ

Be a part of this year's Annual Extravaganza in the Park Christmas Market on Saturday 6th Dec 2025 at Elliott Park Nawton Hamilton.

đŸŽȘIf your aged 5-13years get creative and be a part of our Kids Market. Stalls are to be run by the kids and not the adults. Adults are there to supervise in the background.

đŸŽȘ Visitors will experience a lively marketplace where children showcase and sell their own handmade products. Each child is responsible for setting up their stall, displaying their goods, handling cash or digital payments, and interacting with customers.

đŸŽȘParents and the local community play a supportive role, coming along to shop and cheer on our young stallholders. The market is not just an event—it’s a movement that helps shape the next generation of our market entrepreneurs.

For expression of interest please email craftextravaganzanz@gmail.com before Sat 19th July and state what you would be interested in doing.

We would love some interactive stalls, games where kids can participate at your stall. Get your thinking caps on and we look forward to hearing from you. Stalls will be $20 3x3 site, limited spaces available.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? đŸ„

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
