Hi neighbours!

Steve here from Steve’s Jobs and if you haven’t heard of us yet, we Enhance the Outdoors for clients in your area 😊.

What a stunner of a day today! Definitely time to get those BBQs out (finally) and invite the friends and family over for some entertaining.

How are your outdoors looking? Needing some TLC perhaps or a complete overhaul? If you or someone you know is in need of support with projects, we’re here to help!

We specialise in Outdoor Transformations and also offer Property Pre-Sale and Everyday Services around the garden. Get in touch via the contact us form on my website for a quote today (please use the contact form rather than a reply on here as I can then have your direct contact details) - www.stevesjobs.co.nz...

And here’s what some of our happy clients have said about Steve’s Jobs:

"Steve did a terrific job transforming our yard from a messy and neglected area to one that we are now delighted to use. He has great ideas, fantastic attention to detail and a commendable work ethic. We enjoyed working with Steve and are very happy to recommend him." - Janice - Khandallah

Come and Sing With Us

The Northern Chorale is looking to grow and we are keen to recruit new members


If you've always wanted to sing in a choir, but never got around to it, we'd love to have you give us a try out for a few weeks to see whether you'd enjoy singing with us.

You don’t have to have ‘a good voice’ to join a choir and you don't need to be "musical". Everyone can sing. It doesn’t matter if you don't have a formal musical background though some knowledge or experience helps. And we’d be particularly delighted if some men were interested in joining our tenors and basses.

Why join a choir?

 It’s good for your lungs
 It’s good for your mental health
 It reduces stress levels and depression
 It enhances your brain function – what more could we want?

Why join the Northern Chorale?

 Our Musical Director Thomas Nikora is a widely experienced and talented musician
with a range of musical tastes so he challenges us with musical genres from
traditional choral music to Musical Theatre favourites.
 Led by Thomas, singing together is an altogether enjoyable experience
 There are no auditions.
 Annual subs are modest. This coming year they will be $180 payable in two
instalments of $90

Where and when?

 Every Monday Evening 7.30 - 9.30 pm
 In the Khandallah Presbyterian Church Hall, 33 Ganges Road, Khandallah. (Opposite the New World Supermarket.)

Concerts
 We usually do two public concerts a year. Generally on a Sunday afternoon.

For more information please contact our Chair:
 Anne Henderson
 Email: anne.henderson6@xtra.co.nz
 Phone: 04 4784402
