Playtime at St Hildas
Playtime at St Hilda's Church
Our play time continues on Tuesdays and Fridays from 9.30 - 12.00 during term time.
The toys will be out in the hall, the coffee/ tea will be on, and the hall will be nice and warm. We'll be adding in Expresso coffee this week, and we would particularly like you to drop in this week, before the holidays. Our big hall has space for ride-ons, climbing apparatus, play kitchen, push toys, playdough and jigsaws, as well as places for soft play for babies. Plus we have an outside play area that is safe and secure with climbing frames and ride-ons.
We would love to see you again if you've been before or if you've never tried us. You can drop-in at any time while we are open.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
