A Kingsland Christmas
Hi Neighbours!
I'm helping The Fringe District put together a free family event in The Kingsland Rail Plaza on Saturday 26 November 4-7pm.
We are installing a 10 metre Christmas Tree to bring some outdoor festive vibes to our community. We have Santa and his elves on site from 4-7pm taking free family photos, free face painting, cheeky elves, tuk tuk rides. Be entertained by Santas helpers; The Madeleines Trio, and singalong with Suzy Cato!
We also have a $2000 raffle (sourced from local businesses). Tickets $5, drawn at 645pm in the Rail Plaza - must be on site at prize draw to take it all home with you :)
We thought it would be great to have Santa outdoors this year - so come on down to the Rail Plaza!
Hope to see you all there :) Claire

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!
