There is a new Craft Group starting up at the beginning of term three
Hi All.
I am starting up a new craft group beginning on Friday 28 July (first week of term 3)
This group will run every Friday morning from 10-30 - 12.30 I anticipate that the craft session itself will run for approximately 1.5 hours with the option for people to stick around 12-12.30 for a shared cuppa which will be provided.
Each week I will be providing a craft project for people to do or people are welcome to bring their own and just enjoy having some company.
The group will be held at Trinity Methodist church meeting room - The front of the church is on the town side of clive square - 32 Clive Square East. The meeting room we will be using is behind the church and will be signposted. It can be accessed either up the driveway alongside the church (private leased parking to the real estate company) or through the clearance shed carpark. Sadly the room is not wheelchair accessible - it has a couple of stairs leading up into it. Tea / coffee making facilities and toilets are onsite.
The cost of each session will be a gold coin koha towards the cost of resources for the group.
Please message me for further information and to let me know if you would like to attend as numbers will be limited.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
