The past 2 years have been a difficult time for events of every sort and our own Whangarei Heads Arts Trail is no exception. 2020 saw the event cancelled but 2021 saw it bounce back, managed by Creative Northland, with a fantastic turn out from both local artists and visitors supporting the event. As the population of The Heads continues to grow we are delighted to find more new artists joining us each year. It's amazing to see the diversity and quality of work that is produced right on our own Whangarei doorstep.
W.H.A.T society is always ready to welcome new local members to the society and new guests to the Easter Arts Trail. We are an inclusive society happy to embrace work in all media and at all levels of skill. Our single most important requirement is that work is made by the artist/creator here in NZ. If you would like to know more about the Easter Arts Trail or our society please drop a line, we'd love to hear from you. And, to all of our great Whangarei community a big 'Thank You' for your continued support for the event. Please don't forget that if you are looking for unique Christmas gifts many of our Artists are happy to sell work direct from their studio so please check out their contact details on our web site and give them a call.
Fingers firmly crossed now for a supper summer free of restrictions and a fabulous Easter Arts Trail to look forward to.

Small wrapped bales. Available Springs Flat area. Pick up please. Great for ponies and cattle
Good condition but a bit of yellowing. Was used in a horse float at one point. I have used it to chill bulbs. Has very small freezer compartment
Base only, no mattress. Good condition, no stains, or rips. Some pulls on underside and a couple of corners from over exuberant cats clawing.

Having a will gives your family peace of mind during the grieving process. When your wishes are clearly outlined in a legal document, it gives everyone the clarity they need, and ensures nothing is overlooked or forgotten.
It’s easy to get everything in order and up to date by asking yourself a few key questions..
I want to thank a woman today at the Growers Market. I was trying to buy some strawberries, but must have taken the $20 out of my wallet already, so I only had $5 - not enough. The man was happy to use the eftpos for the needed $10 but he couldn't get it to work, so the woman beside me reached… View moreI want to thank a woman today at the Growers Market. I was trying to buy some strawberries, but must have taken the $20 out of my wallet already, so I only had $5 - not enough. The man was happy to use the eftpos for the needed $10 but he couldn't get it to work, so the woman beside me reached across and said "Here. Have this $10"!!!! Wow I was blown away. How wonderful in this time of bad things happening, that someone completely unknown to me, pays for my strawberries. I hastily gave her the lonely $5. If you are this woman - "Thank you for making my day so much better."

The day started early at 6.00am with a drive around the area in the hope that the quiet morning might entice him to walk a bit more alongside the roads. Dropped a few leaflets at the local supermarket, the weekend market as well. Thank you all for the kindness of your messages and sharing the posts. If we have forgotten to acknowledge you it is a mistake and we are sorry about it. Again we ask people, whanau in Kerikeri , Waipapa and the rest of the Far North district to SHARE , SHARE and hope that if he has travel a lot more afar than we thought and he has been picked up the kind driver will drop him at a vet's , the SPCA...
Skoota is a 10 YO Foxy X Jack Russell , mainly white with a brown spot on his back, has a red collar with names tag and telephone numbers, and a council tag from the South Island as we only recently moved up to Waipapa.
The first and only sighting was 72 hours ago on Kapiro Road Waipapa. Nothing since. He can be timid, certainly not aggressive, not interested in killing and eating sheep.
Also recently had a medical condition making him at times disoriented and unbalanced and for this needs care and regular visit to the vet's .
Again we ask people to share the info if possible as only with a wider community will we be able to locate him.
The country out there is huge and being so small it makes our task almost impossible on our own. Any sighting will help .
Please call 0212113462 if you can help.Thank you
