A fabulous summer tournament sport week!
Beautiful weather at MAADI for our rowers, 3 crews through to semi finals and Grace and Sophie are rowing in a B final on Saturday. Our volleyball girls, playing in their first ever Volleyball Nationals, just won their final game. The team ended up 7th in Division 6, great first effort! The Marsden cricket team had a convincing win over Kapiti College, setting a tough target of 126 runs to take the Premier 2 Championship (Kapiti scored 82). The team performed the best they have all season and were excited to win and achieve their goal to remain unbeaten throughout the competition. Go Marsden!

We loved her messages of the importance of using privilege and power to make change, of getting to know people whose world view is different from your own, and of valuing the amazing care and support that comes with a Marsden education. A strong contingent of girls enjoyed a follow-up free and frank discussion with Madeleine and came away buzzing. Thank you Madeleine, we are so proud of you!

Roof covered in Lichen, Moss and Mould?

Rebekah from Karori

Autumn is the perfect time of year to get your roof sprayed for lichen, moss and mould.

Autumn is the perfect time of year to get your roof sprayed for lichen, moss and mould.

The reason for this is because the safest chemicals require about 6 months and plenty of rain to fully complete their job.

After the chemicals are sprayed onto the roof they need around 4-6 hours of 'dry time'. This allows it to set onto the roof surface. After this, the chemicals will only reactivate when there is rainfall.

As Autumn and Winter is when we see the most rain, it is the optimal time to spray your roof.

If this is something that you wouldn't feel safe doing, please get in touch for a free quote.

It is one year since we went in to lockdown. Do you have a favourite memory or an image from level four lockdown, you would like to share.
Teddy bears in windows, messages on pavements, and lines at the supermarket, these are the moments that defined lockdown.
