Special Children's Christmas Parties in Taranaki
Special Children's Christmas Parties held their Taranaki event at TSB Stadium last weekend inviting over 800 special needs children and their caregivers to a fun day of free entertainment, food, and Christmas presents.
Special Children's Christmas Partieshave been organising these events for over 25 years across a number of main centers throughout New Zealand. Now, every year 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 Stuff Ltd, the publisher of the Taranaki Daily News.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
