Learn to play croquet on 12th November!
Hi neighbours, we are hosting a FREE OPEN DAY for the whole family at the Epsom Remuera Croquet Club! There will be fun games with prizes, raffles, demonstrations, sausage sizzle and refreshments. Wear flat soled shoes and a smile. Said to be like snooker on grass, Croquet is able to be played by anyone from 9 to 90 years.
Golf Croquet is a fast, easy new version of croquet with its own challenges. The pace is relaxed, the tone is social and the accent is on serious fun.
For the first time we'll be introducing Gateball. Gateball is a team game with up to five in each team. It's hugely popular in Japan, China and other eastern countries, with its own World Championships. Games take 30 minutes so are not too demanding.
Come along and try your hand at hitting a ball through a hoop. You've no idea how much fun that can be.
When: Sunday 12th November 9.30am - 3.30pm
Where: 259 Gillies Avenue, Epsom
We look forward to seeing you there!

Mana (Authority, Power, and Prestige) - Day 15
Māui and the Sacred Fire
Māui, a legendary hero, sought to bring fire to the people from Mahuika, the Atua of fire. Māui approached Mahuika with respect for her mana, acknowledging her as the keeper of sacred power. Through wit and humility, he earned her trust, receiving the secret of fire to share with humankind. This act elevated Māui's mana and showed the importance of respecting authority while using power for the greater good.
Moral: Recognise and honour the mana of others while wielding authority with responsibility and integrity.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
