The problem was getting and retaining new singers. Thank you for supporting us over the years and coming along to our concerts. We have loved singing and being so involved in the community. Who knows what new group of singers may evolve.
Kapi Mana Bridge Club lessons start Monday 24 February.

My name is Alister. I have lived in Churton Park for the last 20+ years. I have recently started a property management business, after being involved in the property market in Wellington for 15 years. I have a unique offer of 5% property management fee, with no GST for all properties that are onboarded during the month of February.
I run a small portfolio of properties which allows me to give your tenant personal attention. I have not staff, so both - owners and tenants deal directly with me.
Please get in touch if you would like to find out more. Feel free to text or call to set up a time to discuss your property management needs.

We spoke with his about his process to keep his lawn beautiful and there may be some blades of advice for your own backyard.
Mark has a huge backyard so during Covid times, he decided to renovate the lawn and garden just for something to do. It’s turned into a passion.
His lawn is 100% rye grass - sourced from Prebble Seeds Turf World who supply many golf courses around New Zealand. In the summer he mows it every 2-3 days, sometimes daily, and waters the lawn with a deep soak of about an hour at a time, 2-3 times a week. He uses a granular slow release lawn fertiliser and other liquid fertilisers also.
Mark shares:
'I would say the secret to getting a good lawn is consistent mowing - at least twice a week. Maybe buy a bulk bag of slow release lawn fertiliser from a wholesaler. Keep the grass longer and just take the very top off the blade when you mow. It promotes growth, thickens it up and will really help with stopping weeds - oh, and water. Expect a water bill if you want a good lawn.'
The first photo below shows the 'Before' shot, 4 years ago. Give Mark a Like on this post if you think his lawn is pretty top notch!
It's a debate that resurfaces each year as weather hits its peak just as kids head back to school.
Traditionally, we've paired the school holidays in NZ with the Christmas period, but would a shift to February make more sense for everyone?
