Black cat found

Angela from Bryndwr

**Please contact SPCA. It needed vet care and they have him. Has your cat gone missing? This morning we had a very sad, hungry pussy on our doorstep. Completely tame but very hungry. We have fed and watered. Seems like it may have been trapped somewhere as very thin. Aorangi Road, Bryndwr

Songkran Festival
Celebrate the traditional Thai New Year!


Songkran, the traditional Thai New Year, is celebrated nationwide in Thailand, usually from 13 to 15 April.

One part of the celebration is religious, marked by merit-making at local temples, ceremonial bathing of Buddha images as a symbol of homage, sprinkling parents’ or elders’ palms with a few drops of perfumed water as a demonstration of love and respect, and ceremonies to pay respects to members of our families, and friends, who have passed away.

Other parts of Songkran are fun-filled, with good-natured water throwing, cultural performances, music, dance, sports, and games.

Here in Christchurch, at Wat Buddha Samakhee, we will gather to observe the occasion on Sunday 14 April 2019 with monster Thai food fair, Thai music and dance, lucky dip, and Miss Songkran beauty contest.

The Songkran Festival Organising Committee cordially invites you, your family, and friends, to join with the local Thai community to celebrate Songkran.

When:
14 April 2019
10am to 3pm

Venue:
Thai Buddhist Temple (Wat Buddha Samakhee)
359 Marshland Road
Marshland
Christchurch

Pricing: Free
