Today on my travels round Hornby, I met the lovely Helen in her brand new shop 2nd Hand Rose, a vintage/secondhand shop on Main South Rd, near the bookshop, Pizza Hut etc (across from Pak n Save and down the road a bit...down from Dressmart).

It's a fabulous day for shopping so why not pop in and say hi and welcome!
There's also a big $1 sale going on at the opshop by the library on Goulding Ave (ends today), you've got the big Sallies store not far from there, plus don't forget there's the secondhand bookshop (next to 2nd hand rose) and there's Save Mart too , heaps of bargains to be had all around! :)

Happy Friday, everyone!

Crimewatch (Chch) Inc
We patrol schools, parks and areas where the public frequently visit in Christchurch, helping to keep the public safe from crime. We are expanding our reach and our fleet of vehicles because we have the opportunity to run a lot more activities that help support the well being of the whole community. As we are a non-profit organisation we do require funding to pay for fuel and other vehicle expenses to keep our fleets running to an excellent standard. We really appreciate all donations. VOTE NOW!

AED Defibrillator for Churchill Park School
We need to buy an outside AED Defibrillator to put up at Churchill Park School. There are so many sport organisations that use the school and large numbers of walker, joggers and cyclists use the local park and surrounding streets so this is also a essential item not only for the school but the surrounding community. The cost to purchase this is around $3,500 and we would love AMI community Grants to help support this. VOTE NOW!

Following their 2015 sell-out performances of Sleeping Beauty, Moscow Ballet "La Classique" makes a triumphant return to Australasia with Swan Lake - a spellbinding classical romance.

"The greatest success of Russian theatre is undoubtedly classical ballet."

The most splendid ballet of all time is brought to life by Tchaikovsky's masterpiece score. From the moon-lit lake where elegant swans silently glide to the magnificent opulence of the palace ballroom, Odile, the temptress in a cloud of black tulle, provides a ravishing counterpoint to the purity and innocence of Odette, the beautiful swan Queen. A fairy tale story of a tragic romance. The unrivalled skill and pathos of the famous Moscow Ballet "La Classique" is a visual feast.

See their performance in Christchurch on Monday 1st May 2017 in the Isaac Theatre Royal. Click here to book or call (03) 377 8899.

This is day number three of showcasing two of our AMI Community Grant finalists to share a bit more about the great work that they're doing in Kiwi communities. You can help support these organisations by voting for them to win their share of $20,000.

Wellington North Community Patrol
Our purpose is to empower communities to prevent crime and create safer environments through the utilisation of trained and equipped volunteer patrols. In the November storms last year, we were on the road checking slips, directing traffic and clearing debris. The patrol needs funds to maintain its patrol vehicle - including ongoing petrol costs. Patrol members are also required to wear high-viz vests and currently we do not have sufficient on hand to allocate to each of our patrollers. VOTE NOW!

Surrogate Grandparents NZ
I have started up a non profit organisation called Surrogate Grandparents NZ who's aim is to unite families who may not have their own Grandparents close by, or are no longer alive with "Surrogate" Grandparents. It will provide support for families with young children as well as being companionship for the older generation who may be lonely and away from their own families. VOTE NOW!

A tasty business from a Halswell mum

Kamala Hayman Reporter from The Press

Halswell's Rebecca Lee has created her own healthier ice-blocks with flavours as surprising as avocado, strawberry and coconut cream and beetroot and berry. If you'd like to try them, her Hapi Pops are sold at The Colombo Market on Fridays and Lyttelton Farmers Market on Saturdays.
