I’m looking for a second hand ranch slider door, approximately 1.8m wide x 2.0m high. It’s only for a shed so it doesn’t need to be perfect!

Massive Orchid plant sale.
We have 2 more weeks (until 28th July), until we close our doors. There are still lots of beautiful orchid plants left, but it would pay to come this weekend (21st/22nd July) to pick out the best plants.
They are only $10 each and they range from huge plants with at least 8 stems on each plant, to smaller indoor plants. ( we are CASH only). Bring a largish car or trailer as you will be blown away at how amazing they are, and sooooo cheap.
Look forward to seeing you.

Art craft lessons in Omokoroa
Hi children !
I would like to give some art craft lessons in Omokoroa !
When I was young, I loved drawing. Currently, I am painting and it became a real passion ! As a matter of course, I also do some art craft with my children : painting, cutting, collage, modeling… They are 6 and 9 YO.
I think it’s a good way to develop their creativity and to approach the world in other way. Mine are escaping as well.
I already give some french lessons for children in Omokoroa and I love it ! I love children and their innocence ! In France, I was a high school teacher. I am a very positive and enthusiastic woman.
It will be a pleasure to give some collective art craft lessons, because it is a passion. I will adapt the craft level to their age.
Registration and prices :
I can register 8 young artists per lesson and maybe per age ! All applications are on registration.
Lessons will be from 3.00 pm to 4.45 pm every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.
For one lesson, it is : 20 dollars for 1.45 hour
For 4 lessons prepaid, it is : 18 dollars for 1.45 hour
For 10 lessons prepaid, it is : 16 dollars for 1.45 hour
Materials (brushes, painting, canvas, papers, scissors, pens, crayons, fimo clay, rocks…) are included in the price. Children need to come with a blouse.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, by phone : 022 502 1671 or by email : audrey.duboisnz@gmail.com
Thanks a lot and see you soon !
Audrey

Kiwi start new life in Otanewainuku
Otanewainuku’s kiwi population continues to grow with Matariki and Sonny released recently into the forest by the Otanewainuku Kiwi Trust.
The North Island Brown kiwi are part of the Operation Nest Egg (ONE) programme and have spent their early days at the Kiwi encounter hatchery in Rotorua.
Caption: OKT volunteers Sheryl (left) and Anna wish Matariki a safe journey in her new home at Otanewainuku Forest.
Once these kiwi have reached one kilogram in weight they are translocated to the Waikato crèche where they learn about life in the wild and grow to be an adult in size so that they are more capable of fighting off predators.
In the wild a kiwi chick has a 1 in 20 chance of survival as they cannot defend themselves against a stoat. The work that the Trust and ONE do to nurture these chicks to adulthood, improves their survival odds ten-fold. Nationally North Island Brown kiwi numbers are declining at two percent per year.
The hard work of the Otanewainuku Kiwi Trust (OKT) volunteers and the expertise of Department of Conservation has seen kiwi numbers slowly growing at Otanewainuku.
Western Bay of Plenty District Council is proud to support the great work of the Trust. Council gives practical support and funding to OKT’s program for the long term survival of the endangered North Island brown kiwi, including funding for the Trust’s specialised tracking equipment.
The kiwi population in Otanewainuku has reached 23 comprising of 10 male/13 female and including eight breeding pairs.
