Donations Appreciated-Friends House Fire

Aaron from Enderley

Last Thursday my good friends along with their beautiful 7year old son lost everything when there house burnt down. They are amazing parents who worked hard, get involved in their community and are great parents to their beautiful son. Not long ago they lost their Dad who passed away and have still been dealing with the grief from this.

As a friend and wanting to try and help out, and so near to christmas I am wanting to put it out there to see if anyone would be willing to come forward and donate some christmas presents for their son along with any items that would be appreciated to help out. Donations can be dropped off to me on Enderley ave, please private message me. Your love and generosity will be greatly appreciated by this family.

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A gigantic show-stopping bull called Axle, traditional blacksmithing and farriers, and all creatures large and small entertained thousands at the region’s annual A&P show.

The sights, sounds, and the smells of all things rural returned to Claudelands Showgrounds on the weekend as the Waikato A&P Show celebrated the rural way of life.
