Make a Birdfeeder: Creative Craft Workshop for Kids (9 years+)
Wednesday, 5th July, 10am to 11.30am. School Holiday Workshop in Lower Moutere!
Join us for a fun and engaging hands-on workshop where kids can unleash their creativity while giving back to the environment!
In this unique and crafty workshop, Faline will guide and inspire kids to transform old plastic bottles into vibrant bird feeders, attracting local birds and promoting animal conservation.
Bird feeders not only offer an entertaining way to observe birds up close, but they also provide supplemental food sources for our feathered friends in the garden. In this workshop, your kids will create a seed feeder, perfect for attracting common garden birds, resulting in endless hours of birdwatching!
Safety first! We'll be working with sharp knives and scissors, so participants must have basic motor skills.
Bring your own clean and dry plastic bottle, easily sourced from a recycle depot if needed.
Limited to 8 children. $10 per child Sponsorships available (just ask). Bookings essential: www.riverside.org.nz...
This workshop is proudly sponsored by the Riverside Community Trust. Please contact Tanja (at education@riverside.org.nz) for workshop questions or to ask about sponsorship options.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
