At Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village in Auckland, a group of intrepid travellers have combined the two.
It all began when Bert Sutcliffe Village resident Marie began arranging evenings at the theatre for her neighbours. The theatre enthusiasts soon became close friends and as their friendships developed so did their adventures, expanding their horizons to include long lunches, winery tours, group dinners and adventurous holidays in New Zealand and overseas.

The sport is extremely popular, but not enough has been publicised about the sport itself. Now is your chance to see it in action. Kapiti Petanque club is hosting their biggest tournament of the year on 18 and 19 January. Players come from all over New-Zealand, and it is a chance to see the top New Zealand players in action. The Kapiti Open doubles is open to all to enter, without the need to be affiliated to any Club. Although the Kapiti Open may be a step too far if you haven’t played Petanque before, you are welcome to come to any of our four club days we have each week. If you have ever thought about having a go, now is your chance.
All equipment will be provided. The only stipulation is making sure you wear covered footwear. The contact, club day times and days and entry details are at the end of this post. If you would prefer just to watch, you are very welcome to come along. Sunday afternoon is when the finals are fought out, if you want added excitement.

In her own words, she was a ‘Maori teen mum from the ’Naki’ who others expected to end up on the DPB. Instead she worked her way up through the fashion industry, launched her own online fitness community and clothing brand, and is now in demand as a motivational speaker and social media influencer. She has overcome depression and what she now recognises was an unhealthy relationship with her body, to promote a message of self-love and empowerment.
In Keeping it Real, Makaia openly shares her struggles and the strategies that help her to maintain a positive body image and outlook. Her story is a reminder that physical and emotional well-being starts with self-acceptance. As she says, 'self-loathing is imprisonment; self-love is liberation'.
