SPiCE Floral Carpet Festival NEW DATE Saturday 20 March from 2 - 4 pm in Sandringham Reserve!
Hurray for Alert Level 1 in Auckland!! We are now full steam ahead for our Floral Carpet Festival - back for its 5th year bigger and better than ever. Join us as we use thousands of marigolds to create a stunning carpet of flowers in a beautiful rangoli pattern in the middle of Sandringham Village. Take part in helping us set out the flowers, enjoy learning a traditional Indian dance, or get a henna tattoo. This is a free family event - all ages and people welcome to come and get involved!
RAIN DATE: Sunday 21 March, 2 pm to 4 pm
* Many thanks to local community gardens, Bharatiya Mandir ANVIRO Group and Sanctuary Mahi Whenua, for growing marigolds for us.
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
