Join us for a screening of 'A Grandmother's tribe' and a talk with film director, Dean Easterbrook.

"When Grandmothers speak, peace will return to the Earth." (HOPI PROPHECY)

About the film:

Set between a tiny village and the largest slum in Africa, comes a story of two remarkable grandmothers.

A Grandmother’s Tribe is an award-winning (Finalist, DocNZ Festival 2016 // Humanitarian Award, Sonoma Film Festival 2007) for-purpose film that reveals the lives of countless grandmothers of Africa, left behind after the loss of their own children, who, with determination and tenderness are now responsible for the rearing of more than 13 million orphaned children in sub-Saharan Africa.

Directors, Dean Easterbrook and Qiujing Wong, of Borderless bring audiences an unobstructed story of Emmanuel Makokha and Silas Odhiambo and the grandmothers who have selflessly stepped forward to raise, educate and prepare them for a better future.

Thursday 24 October 6:00pm @ the GridAKL (101 Pakeham Street West)

How Small Is A Matter

Andrea from Eden Terrace

Waiting at the traffic light
For it to turn to green
I’m late for work by fifteen minutes
And it matters a lot to me

Standing in the supermarket
With frozen ice for the drinks
It starts to melt and trickle down

Waiting at the traffic light
For it to turn to green
I’m late for work by fifteen minutes
And it matters a lot to me

Standing in the supermarket
With frozen ice for the drinks
It starts to melt and trickle down
And it matters a lot to me

Get out the door and into the car
I hear my voice scream
The children will be late for school again
And it matters a lot to me

The jeans that take forever to dry
And hanging on the line
The weather has changed from fine to rain
And it matters a lot to me

My cellphone won’t work
And I can’t ring to say goodbye
As you wait expectantly at the airport
And it matters a lot me

The Amazon is burning
Floods claim baron lands
Animal extinction is counted daily
And it matters a lot to me

So I put to you just one intention
Spend every day like a fortune
For time is a precious commodity
And it matters a lot to me

Usual wear and tear but I made a fitted cover for padded seat cushion/mattress when in use and underneath has a velcro strip to fasten to base so can be separated. Is light but will need a trailer or van to transport.

Decent size Shed that needs to be put up

Millie from Morningside

Our old neighbour has left this at the end of the drive with no intention on collecting it. He put it down the day the left, so all parts should be there but not 100% sure they are. When it was up it looked great.
