Hi neighbours, a business owner says having his shop broken into just makes dealing with the construction of City Rail Link harder.
In the early hours on Sunday morning, Sumo Sushi was broken into using a paver from a nearby construction site.

Today we had fun making a big puddle in the sandpit. After initially digging a hole we had lots of helpers to help fill it with water. Due to growing interest in the activity the hole needed to be made bigger to accommodate more children at once. Problem solving at its best followed by lots of negotiation as the children took turns having fun in our man made puddle. Learning is everywhere!

Judi Lapsley Miller (Wellington artist)
Salvaging waste offcuts from framing material she frames her TinyArt bird prints. The framed photographs then form the central focus of another still life image. This merging of photography and fine art composition invites a compelling discussion on trace, even before her work is traced onto a distant church spire in Auckland. Judi is passionate about the preservation of endangered NZ birds and donates a percentage of her sales to wildlife charities. Two works feature in the show:
1. Still life of framed TinyArt of artwork "Emerging (kākā kura)" 2. Still life of framed TinyArt of artwork "At what cost forever" (tūī)
Gary Silipa
Glen Innes artist Gary returns to Somervell to display his work Bling. Larger than life trinkets made from waste polystyrene and plastic, on a chain, read as a metaphor of values linking in with the thematic exhibition premise, valuing the planet.
