“Without fail, when I give a talk about getting organised, I’m always asked how to deal with photos,” says Peter.
Boxes of unsorted photos can feel overwhelming to organise so they often get left for many years to clutter up our houses. In addition to this, most of us have smartphones that make it easy to take photos anywhere, so pretty soon our digital photo life becomes cluttered too.

Off A Sheep's Back
Wool is an incredible and versatile material. In addition to making art, textiles and carpets, another of the many uses of wool is under-sea invasive weed suppression, the natural wool being an environmentally sustainable alternative to plastics.
This collection reflects the diversity of natural wool using a range of “painting” and sculptural techniques.
Through Off A Sheep’s Back you will observe how the artist uses the natural properties of wool to create abstract and beautiful landscapes and whimsical creatures. The artist describes wool as a medium that is absorbing and joy to work with.
Free Events:
Felting Demonstrations
Saturdays 23 & 30 March and 6 April
10am - 11am
Join Lyn Wardlaw in the Community Gallery to see how the artist uses wool fibres to create art.
Booking is not required.

These tips are being shared after a 44-year-old woman will appear in Pukekohe District Court on 28 March charged with theft.
An alleged mail thief in the Pukekohe area has hand-delivered herself into Police, following assistance from the community.
Counties Manukau South Senior Sergeant MJ Riddle says Police were aware of locals discussing a mail theft on social media. A report was made to Police at the time in January and had included enough detail including CCTV footage and a vehicle of interest. Following Police enquiries, the woman has brought herself into the Pukekohe Police Station a few days later
“This is a great result for the community and a timely reminder to the public to continue reporting any thefts from letterboxes.”
Senior Sergeant Riddle says
“Our community should be able to receive parcels and mail without concern of interference but unfortunately there are people in our communities who take advantage of opportunities to commit thefts from mail boxes and front porches."
“We encourage anyone who has been the victim of dishonesty offending to report it as soon as possible,” she says."
