Following their 2015 sell-out performances of Sleeping Beauty, Moscow Ballet "La Classique" makes a triumphant return to Australasia with Swan Lake - a spellbinding classical romance.

"The greatest success of Russian theatre is undoubtedly classical ballet."

The most splendid ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky's masterpiece score. From the moon-lit lake where elegant swans silently glide to the magnificent opulence of the palace ballroom, Odile, the temptress in a cloud of black tulle, provides a ravishing counterpoint to the purity and innocence of Odette, the beautiful swan Queen. A fairy tale story of a tragic romance. The unrivalled skill and pathos of the famous Moscow Ballet "La Classique" is a visual feast.

See their performances in Nelson on Tuesday 2nd May and Wednesday 3rd May 2017 in the Theatre Royal. Click here to book or call 0800 224 224 or (03) 548 3840.

Surviving 7.8 - the story of New Zealand's response to the Kaikoura earthquake

HarperCollins

It was one of the most violent earthquakes ever felt. Arriving by stealth after midnight on November 4th, the magnitude 7.8 Kaikoura earthquake and its aftershocks shook NZ’s heartland to its core and creative a damage zone of epic proportions.

It was one of the most violent earthquakes ever felt. Arriving by stealth after midnight on November 4th, the magnitude 7.8 Kaikoura earthquake and its aftershocks shook NZ’s heartland to its core and creative a damage zone of epic proportions.

Radio NZ’s Phil Pennington was on the job minutes after the earthquake, capturing the drama as it unfolded. His book, Surviving 7.8, is a tough but fascinating study of resilience. It includes stories from the people affected – locals and tourists alike – covering the immediate reaction, the uncertainty and the turmoil, as well as the do-it-yourself attitude and steely resolve that defines who we are as Kiwis.

Sales of Surviving 7.8 support the New Zealand Red Cross November 2016 Earthquake Appeal.

This is the second day of showcasing two of our AMI Community Grant finalists to share a bit more about the great work that they're doing in Kiwi communities. You can help support these organisations by voting for them to win their share of $20,000.

North Shore Initial Response Trust
Every week we voluntarily train to prepare for disasters when emergency services require additional support in searches for missing people, sandbagging to protect properties from flooding, and helping limit damage to people and properties following events such as tornadoes, storms and tsunamis. As a group of volunteers, we are not paid for any of this activity. Since the equipment is exposed to extreme weather events and difficult environments, it regularly needs to be replaced. There is some vital equipment we are in need of in order to be able to continue our dedicating our time to helping keep people safe. VOTE NOW!

Riverton Community Garden Project
Our goal is to create a self-funding, sustainable food producing garden that can eventually start to give back to those most in need within our community, such as struggling families, and the elderly. We rely on various age groups to look after the garden, including the Riverton Primary School, Aparima College (local high school) and Riverton Childcare and other local volunteers. We are seeking funding to establish infrastructure to support the garden for many years to come. VOTE NOW!

Seddon Community and Neighbourhood Support Group
Seddon is our small rural township located to the south of Blenheim on SH1. Rocked and devastated (again) by the quakes in November 2016. With the loss of access to Christchurch via the Main North Line, and SH 1, we are at the “end of the line”. Every one of our self employed residents has taken a huge hit, many of whom can no longer support themselves especially with the removal of all emergency funding as of the 14th February. we are hoping to be able to provide to the whole community, access to essential first aid kits at reasonable and affordable costs to all the residents. It is for this initiative we are seeking some funding in order to subsidise these kits. VOTE NOW!!

Tom and Lorna from Intensive Carpet Clean LTD are offering Neighbourly members 15% OFF our Green Care Service.

We have noticed that many more people are becoming more eco focused and some have enquired about an environmentally friendly option to their carpet care. Tom thought it would be a fantastic idea to incorporate an eco approach to our already professional carpet and upholstery cleaning service, offering our customers a green clean.

The eco-friendly products we have incorporated into our service are rapidly biodegradable and contain no added fragrances, great for people with sensitivities.

As the same as our regular products, our green cleaning products do not contain shampoos which if left on carpets can contribute to rapid re-soiling. Once you have your carpets cleaned you want them to stay fresh for as long as possible!

Call Tom today on 03 544 5168 to receive 15% off this service. Limited time only. www.nelsoncarpetcleaner.co.nz...
