The start of a new journey!

Jane Fisher from Newtown Toastmasters

Our trip "around the world" on Wednesday certainly took us places - from communication styles and the issue of debt, to learning from Toastmasters and the question, "Who are we really?", which Athena ably answered with her Icebreaker speech.

Jeanette's "on-theme" Table Topics got us thinking about our travel preferences...some of us felt our next getaway coming on :)

Thanks to our visitors for coming along - we hope to see you again. If you've been thinking of joining us, Wednesday 24 July is the perfect opportunity - come on down to Newtown Community Centre from 7.30pm and start a new journey!

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!
