Next CAP Budgeting Course starts 4th September !!!
The CAP course is about how to make the most of your money. It doesn't matter whether you have a lot or a little, the CAP money course will help you to use it better. It is totally free and totally confidential. It has worked in helping thousands of people in NZ and also in Australia, England and Canada. We've had about 30 people from the Bay area so far, and the feedback has been incredibly positive, so we think we are on to a winner here!
We will talk about making a budget and then how to keep to it. The next course is at St Hilda's (311 the Parade) at 7.30pm starting on Monday 4th September. There are then 2 more sessions on 11th and 18th.
To enrol just give us a call or email on 022 1392005 or email to ibhildas@gmail.com, or drop a note into the church office, or go to the CAP website (capnz.org), click on the "Find a course near you" button (top right), select the Island Bay course, and follow the instructions. You can text or call us if you have any questions. Places are limited to 12 participants (couples count as one participant).

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
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 it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
