GUESS WHAT! Monthly Garage/Car Boot Sale starting up again!

Kate from Trentham

This coming SATURDAY 3 MARCH - doors open at 8.30am for THAT GARAGE/CAR BOOT SALE WITH THE BIG DIFFERENCE! Our 29th year of monthly Garage Sales - can you believe that! It's true.
Bargains and always a free cuppa with cheesy toast triangles (while they last).
Car boot sites $15 - ph. 528-3454 or text 0274-707-522 to book. Limited indoor space if weather inclement.
This community event always raises funds for others: this time, as well as regular support for our sponsored girl in Ethiopia and Circuit International (helping poor and disadvantaged in Myanmar), most of our money will go to the Tongan Cyclone Appeal. Drop in and see what we're all about - UHBC Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive / Milton Street. More info from Kate (Joint Co-ordinator)

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

BLACKHAWK CORGI RACES SUNDAY NOV 17

Michael from Trentham

Who is the fastest Corgi in NZ?

This will be decided on Sunday, November 17 at Belmont Domain, Lower Hutt with racing starting at 2pm.

Thirty Pembroke and Cardigan Corgis will take to the 60 metre track for racing like no other.

Competition comes from as far away as Auckland and Whanganui and if you want to stretch it a little - Scotland - with the very recent arrival of Skye and his owners from the other side of the world.

The youngest to compete is 7 month old, Atlas whilst Bonnie at 14 years is part of the seniors (nine and over) event.

Spectators very welcome to this sixth annual championship organised by the Wellington Welsh Corgi Club.
