It seems that every year, Featherston Booktown goes from strength to strength, and is surely making its mark along with its other international Booktown events in Europe, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan and Australia.

Booktown celebrates books, storytelling and ideas, and the artefact and craft of the book.

The word is getting out about this year’s rich line-up of events in our South Wairarapa town and already some events are sold out.

There’s so much to choose from – there's sure to be something to tempt you. How about a selection of horror stories told late at night, or learn how to write your family’s history, or even a session devoted to pets, our adored fur babies.

Kids can do some print and paper making, or turn a poem into prompt journal (8 years and older) with Emma Hinton. Carol Duffy has a free book reading where kids can make native bird stick puppets that are part of the story.

Tell your friends and make a date to head to a Booktown event and be educated, inspired and entertained.

Featherston Booktown Karukatea Festival – 51 events, 89 presenters and literary top-liners, along with 25 booksellers.

Friday 12 to Sunday 14 May 2023. Find out about the packed programme here. Book your tickets online or at Martinborough or Masterton i-SITEs.

I have lived in New Zealand for the last twelve years, after being born and raised in Somerset, England. My parents ran a playgroup in our house for much of my childhood and I made close friends there, but I still felt isolated and different to everyone else.

I always loved food. We were able to help ourselves from the cupboards at home when I was young, with no restrictions.

Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.
