Pancake is now dead, killed by this very same dog, according to workers who were on a roof close by. We are devastated by the loss of our beloved 5 year old Pancake. The workers also said that a neighbour came to see the scene, but did not inform us of anything (we could make have tried to resuscitate her. I don't know if the person who came was the owner of the dog who was let to wonder freely and is a true danger to small pets.
I want the owner to hear this: Having a dog comes with responsibility and respect for others. Don't have one if you are not capable of doing this.

Khandallah Village Market: Online!

Amanda from Khandallah

Since we are to remain at level 2, we are going to adapt rather than cancel yet again. For November’s market, we will have the market online.

What this means is local (i.e Wellington based) makers will have the opportunity advertise their wares in the event page. You will need to contact the maker directly to organise a purchase/delivery. This may be the case for the December market.
As much as we would love to see you in person, the level 2 restrictions make it infeasible to operate on site. We hope that this is an acceptable compromise, and that you will continue to support local!
