Playtime at St Hilda's starts again!
It's term time so playtime for toddlers and pre-school age children restarts again at St Hilda's. Open from 9.30 am through to 12.00 on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Playtime is a drop-in anytime during our open hours for as long as your child is having fun. Parents and caregivers welcome. We have lots of toys inside and an outside play area that's sheltered from the winds.
Tea, coffee and nibbles available for children and caregivers.
So come in to St Hilda's church hall, 311 The Parade, for a chat and a cuppa. Koha appreciated.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Merry Christmas -
I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.
Best wishes - Michael
