Forest Guardians clay class

Cate from Belmont

Clay class at Fig Tree Studio
Join me to create a red earthenware forest guardian wall hanging, inspired by the Celtic Green Man and Women. These can be hung in your garden or home, where ever you'd like a bit of magic.
We will use my own templates and imprint with leaves and fabric to create the textures on the face. This is a fun activity which looks super and is achievable even if this is your first time using clay. Suitable for complete beginners or experienced.

These will be unglazed and fired to earthenware temperature to allow the deep terracotta colour to develop. All materials are provided so all you need to do is just turn up ready to have some fun and creativity. Warming herbal teas, and nibbles will be available.

Booking essential, contact clpates@hotmail.com or text 021 143 7705
$50 per person:
Includes all materials, kiln firing and nibbles
7pm- 9:30pm
Thursday 12 November
Completed pieces are ready to collect 4 weeks after class to allow time for firing.

Price: $50

Speed limits around NaeNae

Susan from Naenae

Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
