Calling schools or sewing/craft clubs or charities - free materials and craft things

Lucinda Neighbourly Lead from Mangere

Hi,

If you work for a school or club teaching sewing or crafts or are part of a charity making things (especially for animal charities). I have a lot of material and other things to help that you are welcome to have free.

I would rather they go somewhere doing good but if you are an individual and would like it all please could you pay me something towards it. I would consider $90 more than reasonable given the amount and quality. The materials alone cost at least four times that.

You’d have to collect from Mangere as there’s quite a lot including:

Lace
Silk
Materials
Bias binding
Knitting needles
Hooks and eyes
Sewing needles
Filling
Foam
Buttons

Amongst other things!

Have a look at the photos. I have more photos of the rest if you message me.

Sorry I can’t measure everything. I also prefer it all goes at the same time. Thanks

Cheers

Negotiable

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱

Gerda Takes On Te Reo Maori!

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village

This year Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, Māori Language Week, is being held from September 16 to 23. It’s an important week encouraging all of Aotearoa to use te reo Māori in everyday life. Similarly, Mahuru Māori promotes speaking and celebrating te reo throughout the month of September.

Over the last couple of years, Gerda, a resident at Diana Isaac Village in Christchurch, has grown her Māori vocabulary by attending the virtual monthly te reo Māori classes offered to Ryman residents. This group learning environment is run by Anita Gill from Te Puna Reo Māori, a Māori online learning provider.
