Celebrate St David's Day with the Auckland Welsh Choir-With Love and Hope - Gyda Chariad a Gobaith

The Team from Auckland Welsh Choir

Early each March the Auckland Welsh Choir celebrates St David, the patron saint of Wales. This year we will showcase music of love and hope, through popular choral music and our traditional, wide-ranging and well-loved repertoire.
The choir is delighted to welcome as its special guests an invited opera quartet. All are NZ emerging artists and graduates in singing performance. Be prepared for a treat as they sing well-known quartets from operas Fidelio and Martha!

Our Concert is fundraising for A Girl Called Hope, a non–profit organisation working with young women who face life-controlling issues. We invite you to join us for this concert and help A Girl Called Hope to continue to provide a future full of hope and potential to every young woman .

“Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, cast the shadow of our burden behind us.” Samuel Smiles, 1812 – 1904.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!

We want to hear from you: would you be keen to switch to a fortnightly rubbish collection, or do you prefer things as they are?
