TAPAC's Father's Day Fundraiser - Dad's Drag Bingo Night!
📣TAPAC FUNDRAISING EVENING | 2 September | 7:30pm
Due to funding cuts, the future of our free Kids Dance Pacific and Seniors Dance programme looks uncertain.
Kids Dance Pacific teaches children more about the dances, customs and ceremonies of the Pacific, offering valuable contact with the students cultural heritage. Seniors Dance is designed especially for seniors living independently with age-related physical mobility challenges.
Both of these classes have been so beneficial to students mental, social, and physical wellbeing.
So put away your slippers and slip into some sequins for a fabulous night of celebrating dad and a good cause! Drag Queen hostess Shavorn Aborealis will guide you through multiple rounds of the game before wrapping up the night with a spectacular drag show. Our bar will be fully stocked with Dad favorite's - beer, cider, wine, and cocktails - prizes for bingo winners will also be up for grabs, alongside various raffles which you will be able to enter.
🎟Grab your tickets via the link - we hope to see you there!
Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
