milk prices

Mary from Motueka

I happened to go into New World in Mot and needed some milk, they are asking just over $6.00 for a 2 litre, so I went over to the warehouse and half the price, my question is how can they get away with this, and we are asked to shop locally. No wonder a lot of people go over to Pac and Save

2025 is approaching fast and the Motueka Aquatic Centre fundraising group would like to wish you all the best for the coming year.
This will be a big year for our committee and you will be seeing and hearing more from us as the new year progresses.
Our first fundraiser is being held at the All Cars Rally at Marchwood Park on Sunday 5th January 10 – 2pm. We will be sizzling sausages, selling drinks and raffle tickets, amidst a lot of good cheer – you might even be asked for a couple of coins for our donation tin. Come on down – the cars are amazing - we need your support to get our Aquatic Centre built as soon as possible.

This event will be followed by another sizzling of sausages at Mitre 10 Motueka on Saturday 25th January. Again – come along and have a sausage for brunch 😊
We have two fundraisers planned for February – watch this space.
If you have friends/family/groups that could make something for raffles or lend a hand raising funds please get in touch with me (Sue) on 0275443002 or text Linda 027 940 8882, Maree 027 528 9968 and Daryl 021 104 3599. The four of us are the “Small Events Group”. There are much larger events planned by other members of our Motueka Aquatic Centre group.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Harris Farms (Christchurch), New World, Woolworths, Mitre 10 who are our local sponsors and to our hard working fundraising team.

Thursday 20th February 2025, 1pm - 4pm at Nelson Tasman Hospice

Talking about it more, worrying about it less. A workshop the general public can attend.

This forum is for the general public to attend and is not designed for Health Professionals.

Many people find it difficult to talk about dying, yet dying is an important stage of life and is inevitable.

We plan for the birth of a child, yet when it comes to the end of life, we don’t often want to think about it, or talk about it.

Having a plan outlines our care preferences for the future. Having an Advance Care Plan (ACP) that aligns with our beliefs and values, is a gift that we can give to our family / whānau.

Come along to our workshop and find out more about dying matters, how an ACP can benefit you and your family/whānau and what to expect at the end of life.

We will explore:

– Why is it hard to talk about death and dying?
– What to expect when someone is dying
– Supports available
– Advance care planning processes

This is a free workshop, however space is limited so registration is essential.
Register your space here: www.eventbrite.co.nz...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
