Christmas in the Park
It's back! Our Combined Churches Community Nativity Play is on again in Karori Park on Christmas Eve at 6pm đŒ
This is a free family gathering where we encourage the children to come dressed as a character in the Christmas story and share in the play. đ We always aim to hold the event outside in front of the Karori Park CafĂ© but can move to St Ninians church if the weather is not good.
Bring your whanau, fish and chips, mats, or picnic chairs to sit on and enjoy the spirit of Community celebration in the park. Please wear your masks, scan the QR code and keep the distancing. See you all there!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to âexuberanceâ? đ„
In The Postâs opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, weâre âallergic to exuberance.â
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps itâs worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Many New Zealand gardens arenât seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days â the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, whoâs 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!
