The tree being planted is a miniature kowhai, and it is replacing the beech tree cut down from in front of St Andrew's Church (corner of Queen St and Wesley St) last week.
The Garage Sale starts at 8am in the church hall, with the book stall in the garage by the rear carpark.
The Earth Day charcoal fire will be lit at 9am, with games, activities and talks for the kids about caring for our Earth, plus a sausage sizzle from 10am. At 11.30am the fire will be quenched and the kowhai tree planted.
We now have more drop-off points for the 2019 Pyjamas Push.
Last year the Franklin community pulled together to donate dozens of pairs of pyjamas to kids identified by their schools as being in need.

Last year the Franklin community pulled together to donate dozens of pairs of pyjamas to kids identified by their schools as being in need.
CAN WE MANAGE IT AGAIN THIS YEAR?
Pyjamas can be left at these Pukekohe drop-off points: Pukekohe Anglican Church, 37 Queen St; TopNotch Engraving, 28 King St; Pukekohe Travel, 89 King St; Bedpost, 7 Wrightson Way; Trailer World Showroom, 123 Manukau Rd.
Working with Middlemore Foundation our goal is to get a new pair of pyjamas to each child before the cold weather arrives and colds and other winter ills increase.
For those who would like to make a donation so we can top up the sizes we need when we get close to our target, the bank account number is ASB 12-3023-0071016-00. Please reference this as 'pyjamas'. Pukekohe Community Action Charitable Trust and the Middlemore Foundation have approved this.
