Red Cross, Onekawa Op Shop special event
Hi everyone!
Don't forget that this Saturday morning from 8:30 am to 12 noon, we'll be opening our doors for a special event at the Cadbury Road Onekawa Op Shop! It's a rare opportunity to join us for a delightful day of books, knitting, and fantastic finds.
We'll have end of rolls and small fabric pieces available, so make sure to bring small denominations of cash for quick check-out. You'll also find rolls of fabric and linings at amazing prices - just $5 for small rolls and $10 for large rolls. Check out the photos for more details.
Let's make this Saturday morning a wonderful start to the weekend with great bargains and happy vibes. Can't wait to see you there!
Best wishes,
Bonnie

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.
