Cut down your power bill this autumn!

Electric Kiwi

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

See our 5 top tips for cutting down your autumn power bill:

1. If you’re not using it, switch it off: If you’re not using an appliance, such as a heated towel, dryer, or TV, switch it off at the wall so it doesn’t use power on standby.

2. Change your cooking habits: Eat fresh veges instead of cooking. Using the oven for an hour a night can add $20 to your monthly power bill.

3. Use curtains to trap heat in: Let the sun heat your home during the day then close your curtains to stop the warmth escaping in the evening.

4. If you’re away, turn the hot water cylinder off: You can save up to $36 on your power bill if you switch your hot water cylinder off while away on weekends.

5. Make the most out of your FREE Hour of Power: Utilise power deals like Electric Kiwi’s free Hour of Power, which gives you one off peak hour of free power a day. Use this hour to heat your home, turn on the dishwasher, or run the washing machine and dryer.

Another busy and fun month at Pyes Pa Playcentre, including a couple of trips, a couple of courses and welcoming some new families to our centre.

We started the month with a focus on treasure hunting. Pirates, treasure chests and golden loot have been great fun, getting all the children involved and interacting. We started with a sandpit treasure hunt at the centre, continued this the following week with a trip to Motuopuhi (Rat) Island where an amazing treasure chest was uncovered. The children loved wading out across the mudflaps to the island, searching for crabs, jumping in muddy puddles and exploring little alcoves. Luckily we got in just before the rain started.

Our other trip was to Redwood Lane Blueberries. So great for the children to help understand where our food comes from and then it was back to centre for process cooking action - fresh delicious Blueberry muffins. Yum!

We also held a wheels day on session where we all brought something with a wheel and setup a track. Lots of fun and the children interacting really well together.

Pyes Pa Playcentre hosted two workshops this month a creativity course and sand workshop. These are both fun interactive courses for parents and caregivers which got our creative juices flowing in painting, clay and marbelling. This course really helped us understand about our children development stages and how to encourage and support their own creativity, and we gain credits in the NZQA system in Early Childhood Education.

We would love your support The Warehouse at the Crossing, for our fundraising towards replacing our deck roof. With autumn upon us, we really need to replace this roof asap as it leaks and leaves us with very limited space to play in. so grab those tokens at the counter and help us fill our container!

Are you looking for a great gift - we still have some 'Sweet Enough' cookbooks left to sell. This high quality cookbook has over 80 delicious recipes - all your favourite recipes with less sugar, all scientifically tested to ensure the recipe still works. Contact us for more information or to have a look at a copy of the book.

Want to join in the fun at Pyes Pa Playcentre, come for a visit - all new families welcome. Sessions run from 9:30-12:00 Tuesday and Fridays. /
