OUR LAST MONTHLY FUNDRAISER CAFE FOR THE YEAR!
This HAS to be the cheapest cuppa in Upper Hutt - maybe Aotearoa/New Zealand? Where else can you get a percolated coffee or pot of tea with a slice of home baked cake or cheese and relish toastie for ONLY FOUR DOLLARS!! YES, only $4 and served with a smile! WHERE? UHBC's Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive and Milton Street, Trentham on SATURDAY 5 DECEMBER between 10am and 12 noon. From 11am there'll be live music with Christmas carols - you can sing along if you like! We'll also have a Home Baking Table with items for sale. All our proceeds go to support the very worthwhile work of Circuit International, helping the poor and disadvantaged in Myanmar with some great projects. Check their website to see some of them.
There'll be a CAR BOOT SALE outside in the car park - only $15 and those proceeds also go to Circuit International. Phone 528-3454 to book a site.
