Oct 31: Remembering a loved one or a loved pet...drop in to our "Lantern Garden"

Administration Team from Island Bay Presbyterian Church

On All Hallows Eve we're lighting up the church garden and welcoming you to decorate a shell or stone in memory of a loved one who has passed away.

Drop by between 4 and 9pm and add to the visual delight! Stay as long as you like - the church and garden will be open for all. Families of trick or treaters? - the garden is right by the footpath, so as you walk past, here's an opportunity to remember...

Thursday 31 October. 88 The Parade, Island Bay. 100 city side of the shops.

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!

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles

Michael from Newtown

Merry Christmas -

I have around twenty, empty 10-liter distilled water bottles to serve as emergency water storage. I saved them for my friends, but they already have their own water supplies. Take as many as you like. Please respond to this notice if you are interested.

Best wishes - Michael
