Summer Drop in Land sessions with Artist Margaret Fenney

When: Thursday 19 & Saturday 21 December
Where: Community Gallery Space Franklin Arts Centre

Time: 10am – 1pm

TERRA FIRMA
Earlier this year Franklin Community Arts funded artist Margaret Feeney to run a workshop looking at what land means to people. Land is home, it is income, it is ancestral right, it is something we control and use, as well as something we love and feel kaitiakitanga towards. How does art tell the story of all these different feelings?

This summer programme at Franklin Arts Centre explores these ideas in further depth across four workstations exploring mark-making and frottage, clay, collage and paint. The workshops are experimental and fun, and everyone’s welcome.

Drop in any time between 10am and 1pm on Thursday 19 or Saturday 21 December to have a go.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Police are asking for the public’s help for information into a heartless act which has ruined an Ōtara preschool.

Sometime between 9am on 7 December and 6pm on 8 December, Ōtara Community Preschool was broken into and windows and property smashed and items stolen.
Counties Manukau East Area Prevention Manager, Inspector Rakana Cook, says nine internal windows were smashed, along with a microwave and oven and computers being knocked to the ground.
“This type of behaviour is quite frankly disgusting.
“This is an awful situation, a preschool has been left footing the bill for this crime and children are now without their belongings and educational resources.”

Inspector Cook says the offenders acted in a mindless way, destroying property seemingly for the sake of it.
“We are working hard to identify and locate those responsible for this senseless crime.
“We are now asking for the public’s assistance for any information which may help us to hold this person, or people, to account.
“A number of people have come forward with information and spoken to Police since this incident, and we ask anyone who has not yet spoken to us to get in touch.”

Information can be provided by updating Police online now or by calling 105.

Please reference the file number 241208/6023.

Alternatively, you can report information anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Hundreds of Kiwi children will receive something special this Christmas thanks to Ryman Healthcare’s support of the Catalytic Foundation’s Christmas Shoebox Project.

Instead of giving individual gifts to residents, the idea was to redirect those funds to support struggling New Zealand families having to cut back on essentials.

Ryman residents were overwhelmingly in support of the idea, with many volunteering to help choose the gifts to fill over 1000 shoeboxes with thoughtful items.
