Playtime at St Hildas

Clive from Island Bay

Playtime at St Hilda's Church

Our play time continues on Tuesdays and Fridays from 9.30 - 12.00 during term time.

The toys will be out in the hall, the coffee/ tea will be on, and the hall will be nice and warm. We'll be adding in Expresso coffee this week, and we would particularly like you to drop in this week, before the holidays. Our big hall has space for ride-ons, climbing apparatus, play kitchen, push toys, playdough and jigsaws, as well as places for soft play for babies. Plus we have an outside play area that is safe and secure with climbing frames and ride-ons.

We would love to see you again if you've been before or if you've never tried us. You can drop-in at any time while we are open.

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

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!
