Christmas at the Beach - Blockhouse Bay

Sarah from Blockhouse Bay

So this Sunday night we’re going to be down at the BHB Beach Reserve, with a FREE AND FABULOUS programme for kids from 5pm. Due to the large amount of people last year we’ve got MORE facepainters, MORE balloon twisters, a BIGGER Beach treasure hunt, and all being well a water slide (may want to pack a change of clothes and a towel for the kids!) that should keep the queues down, as well as the return of the nativity quest with some fabulous prizes.

There is also a FREE BOOK for kids we are giving away whilst stocks last.

Carols start later, and then they are followed by SHANE and the SHAZAM BAND. Shane is a local legend - his number 1 hit St Paul stayed at the top for 6 weeks, and his current band are possibly the best yet, he’s gigging all time and we are so lucky to have them. So dig out your DANCING shoes, and grab a picnic or browse the FOOD TRUCKS.

This event is run by the BHBay Churches, with thanks to our sponsors the Whau Local Board and Ray Whites.

Shuttles run from Iona and Church of the Saviour (Kinross St) carparks for ease of parking, 5pm-6pm and 7pm-9.45pm.

Morning Aches Are Optional - Let’s Start the Year Sleeping Better

Beds4U - Avondale

Hey neighbours,

Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.

Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
