International Speech and Evaluation Contests - Thanks, everyone!
Thanks to all the speakers, evaluators, judges and officials who made our International Speech and Evaluation Contests last Wednesday such a success. It was the first time as Contest Chair for yours truly and I couldn't have asked for a more positive experience.
Congratulations once again to our wonderful contestants - with a special mention to Aya and Lisa who will represent Newtown at the Area H4 Contests on Saturday 23 November.

FREE 10-liter emergency water bottles
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!
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!
