Janet Lovelock from Papanui, Christchurch has won the category of Best Floral Garden for her stunning floral garden in this small space. Congratulations, Janet!

Janet and her husband both enjoy tending to their garden and shared this about their garden:
"We are both in our eighties and have lived in the Ngaio Marsh Retirement Village for three and a half years. Our passion for gardening spans many years. We change our display every six months to cover Spring and Summer.
The residents in the village regularly bring their visitors to see our display and take plenty of photographs. When you hear comments such as “It lifts my spirits when I get to this corner” you realise how much it means to everyone. We will continue to create a beautiful garden for as long as we are able."

Good news for parents! We will restart our regular Tuesday morning playgroup starting on February 4th at 9.00 am. This is for pre-school children from 0 to 5yrs, with special emphasis on the 0-2 year olds.
We operate as a drop-in playgroup so you can come at whatever time suits your child. A great chance to meet other parents and caregivers over a coffee and some delicious nibbles. Depending on numbers we could have a music session around 10.30. We ask for a Koha to cover the refreshments, and hall operating expenses.
Note: our next SPACE course for new parents and their babies starts the following day 5th February.
Playgroup and SPACE meet in the hall at St Hilda's church, 311 the Parade
