MEGANZ School of Visual Arts wishes you all a Happy Summer Holiday
We have come to the end of our year of having some serious fun creating, exploring, and learning heaps of new artistic processes.
I am very proud of all our students. They have worked hard, produced some amazing artwork, and learned a few art tricks along the way.
We will be opening again from 29th January for our eight-week 'Art Development Courses' for students aged between tweens, teens, and adults. We have afternoon, evening, and Saturday class times available. Best to check out our website for details, www.vizart.co.nz... and from there, go onto our school Instagram page to see what our students have created over this past year.
We always like to arrange for a 20-minute meet-and-greet appointment before students begin. So between now and when we start give Megan a call or a text to make a time to meet.
Look forward to hearing from you for some creative artistic fun for 2024

Secure your homes over summer
Police are reminding people to keep their homes secure during the summer months.
Inspector Glenda Barnaby, Christchurch Area Prevention manager, says daytime burglaries are just as common as nightime burglaries.
“Burglaries can be committed at any time of the day, and coming into warmer months there is more opportunity for thieves."
"Although a majority of burglaries involve forced entry through windows and doors, we are starting to see more incidents at insecure premises. Police deal with cases where burglaries are committed in broad daylight, sometimes even while the victim is at home. Good weather means open doors and windows, which makes homes more vulnerable to burglars.”
Inspector Barnaby says there’s a few things people can do to reduce their changes of a burglary being committed.
⚠️ If you’re going outside for gardening, relaxing in the sun, or working in the garage, take a moment to lock your doors and secure your windows first.
⚠️ Do the same at night when you go to bed - keep your doors and windows secure and close your curtains. Fitting window stays means you can get a breeze coming through, while keeping your windows secure.
⚠️ Get to know your neighbours - let them know if you’re going away and look out for one another.”
If you see any suspicious activity, people or vehicles in your neighbourhood, don't hesitate to contact Police.
If you witness or suspect any illegal activity, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report through 105 either online or over the phone, if it is after the fact.
