Special Children's Christmas Parties held their Hawkes Bay event at the Pettigrew Green Arena in Taradale last weekend inviting over 800 special needs children and their caregivers to a fun day of free entertainment, food and also took home three quality toys to call their own.

Special Children's Christmas Parties have been organising these events for over 25 years across a number of main centres throughout New Zealand.
Now, every year in New Zealand, nearly 10,000 Kiwi children with special needs, challenging life or health circumstances are invited to a party like no other.

The annual event is made possible by many local businesses supporting this event including Neighbourly.co.nz.
To be a part of this special event next year, please contact Aidan Belsham - Aidan@scevents.co.nz

Hawke's Bay Show

Denise from Marewa

Did you know that they have competitions for people who knit, sew, embroider, make chutney or relish, do woodwork and more? If you enter an item into the show, the entry fee is $5 per item but you get a free ticket to the show, which would cost you $15 otherwise.

Did you know that they have competitions for people who knit, sew, embroider, make chutney or relish, do woodwork and more? If you enter an item into the show, the entry fee is $5 per item but you get a free ticket to the show, which would cost you $15 otherwise.
What used to be called "Homecrafts" has so few entries and categories compared to 2017 when I last entered partly due to a lack of promotion, so if you can, please put something in the Show to help make it what it used to be. The show is only held over 2 days now too.
Here is the link to the Show site:
