Meadowcroft Garden, Otaki Gorge Road
APRIL 11th & 12th
After two very successful nights in 2024, with fabulous feedback, Neil and Avis MacInnes are again opening their special garden at night in April.
Discreet lighting brings the garden alive after dark and provides an opportunity to see another side of this unique garden - and to also raise funds for the Te Horo Hall. Very popular with daylight tours, the garden is usually only opened at night to friends and family, so this is a special second chance.
This year the exterior of Te Horo Hall needs to be reclad. Following successful earthquake strengthening in 2024, recladding will ensure long-term weather tightness as phase 2 of the Halls upgrade. Your support is much appreciated.
-
On both FRIDAY 11th & SATURDAY 12th of April Meadowcroft garden will open to all from 7pm – last entry 9.30pm.
$15pp and $5 for children under 12 years.
(Cash only please).
Bring family and friends and wander through this gorgeous garden amidst the lights. Due to water features and reduced lighting the garden is not suitable for young children, and no pets are allowed. Off road parking will be available
Please note:
Special care is required as there are steps, sloping pathways and ponds. Every effort has been made by the owners to ensure the garden and car parks safety. Both are entered at visitors own risk.
And – in case of bad weather, please go to our website on Thurs 10th April, to check if the event is going ahead – www.tehorohall.org.nz...
A BIG THANK-YOU to Neil and Avis for making their garden available again this year, and to the neighbouring Mansell family for use of their paddock for car parking.

And the situation is getting worse, with increasing numbers of homeless people here in Kapiti while we wait for the Housing Trust to get up and running. How long has gone past since Kapiti was made to be more aware of the dreadful situation here? I had the chance to meet a youth who was homeless. He was able to get into a motel but only for one week. He then needed to find alternative accommodation or it would be back to the streets again. He left Kapiti but that just moves the homeless person a number in another town. The organisations are few and far between where they can do something for these homeless youth, families, elderly etc. How many are not known of because they are surfing couches, going from one place to another constantly, sleeping in cars, in derelict and abandoned buildings/houses? Where more than one family is living in one house. How many times does a tenant have to find a rental because the owner can evict with no reason now? How many are too shy to get WINZ help.
I had a solution but this government has put the kaibosh on that. Why can't WINZ use the Temporary Assistance Supplement (TAS) to help with outrageous rents when they have been paying motels. I would bet it would be cheaper, in the long run, to use the TAS instead of paying the moteliers who are making money hand over fist with that. But then it seems after one week another homeless person is housed for only that week.
Now that takes me to the ridiculous situation of the TAS. I have been getting that for 14 years and have to renew it every three months. I was on the Kainga Ora list to find accommodation that would suit my needs. Yes, we all have different needs. But I decided I had had enough of living in a motel where drug users were present and an abusive man to his family. So I found a rental a long way from my family and of course, the rent went up every year. I am pleased to say this year it has not increased, but it will eventually.
How would each M.P. cope with living in the same situation that many of us have no other option?
KCDC and the Mayor think they are doing something useful but what have we got to show for it? If there were to be some sort of disaster housing would be found for those who lose their homes due to the disaster
