For the month of October, we want to see how you tackle emergency preparedness. From getting first aid training to putting together a grab n’ go bag with survival essentials, a little bit of planning goes a long way to make sure you can get through any situation.
This month also coincides with International Day of Disaster Reduction on October 13th and New Zealand’s national earthquake drill and tsunami hikoi, ShakeOut, on Thursday, October 17th at 1.30pm.

At Alpine we try to be multi-dimensional with our activities, and each school holidays our busy activities staff organise events where residents can invite their grand kids in to enjoy together.
In the past this has included indoor pool days, clowns, entertainers, film sessions (with popcorn!) and family fun... including a bouncy castle and candy floss!
We look forward to seeing lots of grand children coming in and out of the village during the holidays over the next couple of weeks!

One minor flaw is the very small dent near the petrol cap from a trailer being backed into it!
Any questions please ask"

Finest german porcelain bought in the 1980's but still available new. Gracious styling made for Christmas Day and special events. My daughter has different taste and I've been carting it around hoping for a change of mind.
