Parihaka Day screening: Tātarakihi: The Children of Parihaka
By popular request, the Canterbury Film Society is delighted to offer a repeat screening of Tātarakihi: The Children of Parihaka on 5 November at 2pm at Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetu, corner Montreal & Gloucester Streets. Speaker is Ngapera Teitinga-Moeahu from Parihaka. Rating GA. Running time 65 mins.
Tātarakihi tells the story of a 'journey of memory' taken by Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Tamarongo following in the footsteps of their ancestors who were imprisoned in the South Island after the Taranaki land confiscations of the 1860s.
Entry is by KOHA (donation). Seating is on first-come-first-served basis, but priority seating will be given to those who missed out last time. (Suggest you come early and put your something on a seat to reserve one; we 'sold out' last time.) Food and drink will be sold as a fundraiser for Canterbury Film Society.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
