Te Kowhai News November issue
This is the last issue for 2018 (seriously…. Has this year gone fast or what?)
In this issue you’ll find:
* An interview with Renae Smart from Civtec. Civtec is a local company and just last week, Renae won the 2018 Emerging Leader award at the Westpac Business Awards.
* Lots of great wheel photos. Credit to the weathered wheel shown in this post goes to Suzy McPhail.
* Stocking filler ideas for little girls.
* Summer salad recipe from Louise Hopkins.
* Dog training support from Heather Westerby-Jones
* Christmas services at St Stephen’s Church (see ad on P7)
* Heritage stories by Graham McBride.
* Politics, Council and Community Group news from local contributors.
In January I’ll be collecting up holiday snaps from the community so I’d love it if you could send something in for page 2. Send me a snap from your phone of you or those around you taking a break from school or work: tekowhainews@gmail.com
I hope you enjoy reading this latest issue.
Kind regards
Amanda

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!
