Want to share your story of settlement?
I'm facilitating a community writing and performance project called Settlement Story where people write and perform their own stories of settlement in Aotearoa (or stories of affect from pakeha settlement in Aotearoa). Do you know anyone who wants to be supported to write their own monologue for performance? Or do you want to support a project where stories can be shared in likely and unlikely places? We need people who what to be involved as writers/performers, as well as musicians, photographers, artists, organisers, publicist, funders and eventually hosts to host a performance in their workplace or club. Please email jwalkernz@live.com to register your intertest and to receive an information pack. This could be your opportunity to take action in challenging times.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Art and Craft Market at Kai Tahi - 10 till 3 EVERY SUNDAY!
Hi neighbours
The new Porirua Community Art and Craft market at Kai Tahi in Porirua is now running EVERY Sunday. It's all indoors, and there's over 30 stalls each week.
Opens at 10am and closes 3pm, so you can also grab lunch at the many international food court options. Bring the kids, and your dog on a lead is welcome too!
Parking at the back (on harbour edge) is free - just stay clear of the Staff Only parks.
What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
