The GABBS book fair is an annual event held on the first weekend of November at the Barfoot & Thompson Stadium in Kohimaramara. Our Book Fair raises funds for the East City Community Trust, and the Barfoot & Thompson Stadium Sports Clubs. The journey doesn't stop there though! Left over books from the fair go on to great use through a number of initiatives in other parts of Auckland, and all the way over in Papua New Guinea thanks to one of our partners "From me to PNG"
We accept books, DVDs, jigsaw puzzles, records, CDs, and magazines at the Stadium all year round. So if you have any books you no longer need, please donate them to this worthy cause.
Please refer the website below for delivery and drop off information.

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!
