Seeking volunteer for community/mental health choir
We are looking for someone to help in the office with our community choir that runs in Newtown every Monday afternoon. We have a range of people attend including special needs, elderly, anxiety sufferers and the general public. We have three wonderful professional musicians who perform every week and donate their time for free.
The person we are looking for would be required to help with light admin and promotions via social media etc. Experience in these areas would be preferable but not essential.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

What flowers are blooming in your garden?
Kia ora neighbours,
In our September mag, Amy Roberts from Villaleigh Plants has a list of her favourite blooms for long display. "If you want a long season, look beyond the flowers," is her advice. Here are her picks: Geranium phaeum 'Mourning Widow', Salvia leucantha, Hylotelephium 'Autumn Joy' (pictured), Eryngium pandanifolium and Alchemilla mollis.
Have you got them in your garden? In fact, we'd love to see what you've got in bloom now. Post a photo and share the joy!
