Community Crochet Shade Sail

Alison from Frankton

Hi everyone, about a month ago about 40 crocheters met on Facebook and began crocheting 210 squares to make a shade sail. Now we are halfway through and Hamilton City Council are supporting the project by suspending it in the trees beside the playground at the lake in October. Donaghys have donated the twine we are using. We hope you will all be able to enjoy it over the summer.

What do you think of this 11-year-old's chosen cause?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Whangamatā 11-year-old has placed his award-winning mullet up for auction to raise money for Starship Hospital.

Kahū Hall, who named himself ‘Taco’ when he was three years old, is selling his mullet after growing it for three years. Taco said he was motivated to raise the money after his friend Evie Taylor stayed at Starship Hospital for a heart operation.
