The Look Out! Performing Arts & Entertainment Guide
January 13 – January 21
The Look Out! Performing Arts and Entertainment Guide is back for another weekly round of things to do, places to go and shows to see.
There are plenty of organised school holiday activities, along with several ad hoc free events, which include the first of 2020’s Movies in Parks taking place in Bunnythorpe on Friday evening.
Among the outdoorsy, work-off-that-Christmas-waistline events is the Walk the New Highway: Hikoi o Te Ahu a Turanga. That joins the Park Run, the Super Sevens, an arts & garden tour, a beach dig, Beats Bites & Brushes, the Globe Theatre’s Summer Sounds Festival, and the 3-day Marton Country Music Festival. Yee-hah!

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
