Spice up your winter

Bob Owens Retirement Village

When it’s cold outside, there's nothing quite like being inside the cosy warmth of a kitchen infused with the aroma of spices. But did you know that beyond their aromatic allure, these spices harbour a treasure trove of health benefits?

From the fiery kick of chilli to the sweet warmth of cinnamon, each spice brings not only flavour but also a host of nutrients and healing properties to our winter dishes. So, whether you're sipping on mulled wine, indulging in gingerbread, or savouring a hearty stew, every bite promises to not just please your palate but also contribute to your overall wellbeing.

Kia ora Koutou, Katoa, Hi Everyone


Happy New Year !!!

We are looking for people who could be available to help to paint over the Graffiti on 'The roof' currently situated in Ngongotaha at a temporary location.

We have special paint (High Opacity Stain Blocker)
that will cover the tagging and prevent it bleeding through to the new top coat. We have rollers.

Has anyone got scaffolding that we could use please?

Please email progressngongotaha@gmail.com
or phone 07 3574565 or 022 1404391
If you can help us.

Your help will be very much appreciated

Kind regards
