We have had a number of parents of babies and preschoolers tell us that they would love a playgroup in Churton Park. we have open Playgroup at the Centre on Wednesday morning from 10 am - 11.30 am, but we don't have a coordinator for this group.
Would you be interested in bringing your little one to a playgroup over this time? Would you also be interested in helping to organise the group? This would not be a difficult task. We have the toys, the tea and coffee, and the space available. We would just need people to take turns at setting up the room and tea and coffee etc, and packing away and vacuuming afterwards. As a group you may like to have a roster for this.
If you are interested please email mai.mostafa@wcc.govt.nz or Ph 830 4802

To mark the celebration of Rotuman Language week we are screening the feature film 'The Land has Eyes'.
Filmed on Rotuma this is the story of Viki, a young South Pacific Islander inspired and haunted by the island's mythical 'Warrior Woman'.
The lush tropical beauty of Rotuma, an island of Fiji, contrasts with the stifling conformity of her culture as Viki confronts notions of justice and her own personal freedom.
The film is in Rotuman with English subtitles.

This is because all waters are plumbosolvent, which means they can dissolve very small amounts of metals if they come into contact with them.
Upper Hutt, Lower Hutt, Porirua and Wellington drinking water is described as ‘soft’ water, because there is less calcium and magnesium content. Soft water is slightly more acidic than hard water, and as a result it dissolves metals more easily/quickly.
In New Zealand, the plumbing materials/fittings (i.e. your taps) which come in to contact with water are usually the source of heavy metals, such as lead, nickel, cadmium, copper and antimony.
When you turn a fitting off there may be a small amount of water left sitting in it. Whilst our treatment processes adjust the pH to reduce the water’s aggressiveness on pipework, there is the potential that water sitting in a plumbing fitting, if unused for several hours, may accumulate minute traces of metals.
Although the health risk is small, the Ministry of Health drinking water standards recommend that you flush a mugful of water from your drinking-water tap each morning before use. This should remove any water that was left in your fittings, and metals that may have dissolved from the plumbing fittings.
All households are advised to take this precaution, whether they are on public or private water supply.
For further information you can contact the Drinking Water Assessment Unit of the Wellington Regional Public Health Service, phone 04 570 9002.

The judges said: "Park Mews is a high point of a building style that has become as synonymous with Wellington as the gabled modernism of Miles Warren and his cohort was with Christchurch." Do you agree? Find out what else the judges had to say, here.

I have arranged a movie fundraiser for my uncle who has suffered an aneurysm and has been in hospital for over 109 days now.
On January 18th 2018, Mike was going about his work and had just finished milking the cows when tragedy struck. Fast forward a few hours, Mike ended up in the Waikato Hospital HDU (High Dependency Unit). After many operations, procedures and infections, Mike is still very much a patient.
The tickets are $25 and include a glass of bubbles. There will be some homemade treats for purchase. We will also have tickets available to win a gift basket.
All the funds raised will assist aunty Janine and uncle Mike with his recovery.
These are two extremely selfless people and this is the least we can do to help. They have always had our back and now it’s our turn.
Please feel free to message me if you would like to purchase some tickets 🙂
I have also set up a give a little page aswell if you would like to donate towards this 🙂
Thanks so much for reading this! 🙂

While countless gardeners around the world are stripping off to tend to their flower beds and vege patches, falling temperatures across NZ have led to calls for the Southern hemisphere to have it's own naked gardening day in spring, when it's a bit warmer.

As transmitters of language and life narratives women hold a vital role in maintaining links to the past which act to fortify the present and prepare ground for the future.
Through the prism of the songs they pen five influential women song writers and performers will discuss the creative and political practice of telling and disseminating stories. Chaired by RNZ’s Kirsten Johnstone the panellists will discuss issues around gender perspective and the power of voicing autobiographical experiences. This panel discussion will shed light on the importance of telling previously untold stories, and how this very act politicises the personal.
Panellists, Ariana Tikao, Kiki Van-Newton (Hex), Ebony Lamb, Jessie Moss and Cookie (Strange Stains) will perform a selection of relevant songs after the panel discussion.
