Movie Fundraiser during school holidays

Kelly Lensen from Karori Community Toy Library

The school holidays are nearly upon us, and if you are looking for something fun to do, join us at the Penthouse Cinema in Brooklyn, and help support the Karori Toy Library.

On Wednesday the 3rd of October, we will be screening the movie "Small Foot" at the Penthouse Cinema in Brooklyn, at 11am. The movie is being released in New Zealand at the end of September, so join us and be one of the first to view it!

Tickets are $15 each for children and adult alike - the kids will receive a fun goodie bag, and there will be some great spot prizes up for grabs!

All money raised from the fundraiser will go towards purchasing new toys or replacing/repairing old toys.

Please forward this to any one you know that might be interested, or looking for something to do with their kids during the holidays!

The event and more information can be found on Facebook: www.facebook.com...

Tickets available from Karori Toy Library during opening hours or contact karoritoylibraryfundraising@gmail.com

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

How is this possible?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
