School holiday programme in Karori
Kia Ora neighbours,
We have a fun school holiday programme over 22-24 April, with a theme of Peacekeepers. Along with our usual schedule of games, arts and crafts, songs and more, we are also taking a look at ANZAC Day and going to along to the RSA to talk with veterans about their experiences. We know they will have a lot of wisdom to share with us.
Times are tough, so we only charge a koha for the programme, as we love to support the community. We provide a delicious and nutritious morning tea and lunch for the tamariki.
Spots get snapped up, so get in quickly by calling our lovely admin Rachel on 476 7137 or by emailing stnup@xtra.co.nz

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Moe mai rฤ, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
