Hi, Do you play a musical instrument, maybe flute or recorder or violin or drum.

Here is a link to the ‘dots’ – have a look.

L’ANSON RESERVE – WEEDING BEE – 20 JUNE

June 19, 2019

L’Anson Bush Reserve is situated near Te Puna between SH2, Loop Road and Armstrong Road. It was planted in 1987 by Tauranga Forest & Bird, and is managed by WBOP District Council. This lovely bush reserve has a 2 km walking track around a small lake.
In recent years many invasive weeds have taken hold and are spoiling the beauty. Many weeds require manual eradicating. To get on top of this problem, monthly working bees are now being held at I’Anson Reserve on every third Thursday of the month. We invite people to come and help us on Thursday 20th June, from 10 am – 12.30 pm. (Note that future weeding bees will start at 9 am). Please gather at the car park off Loop Road, off SH2. Bring suitable clothing and foot wear, gloves and your own hand tools if you wish.

If you have any creative ideas on how to attract corporates or groups to come along for work days at the reserve to help achieve our weed free goal, please get in touch. Please share this invite with anyone you know who may be interested.
This project is a partnership between Forest and Bird and the QEII trust and the community.

The Gospel in the Feasts

October 30, 2018

The Gospel in the Feasts
Did you know God created holidays? He created special celebrations that were object lessons, reminders, and PROPHECIES about the future.
The seven annual feasts of the Lord (Leviticus 23) provide a prophetic panorama of God’s wonderful plan of redemption, beginning with the sacrifice of the Lamb (Passover) and resolving with the final ingathering at the end of the age (Feast of Tabernacles).
Join Nigel Christensen and discover how these ancient holidays are GOOD NEWS for all followers of Jesus, whether Jew or Gentile.

Passover Meal Demonstration

October 30, 2018

Discover the Roots of the Lord’s Last Supper
Have you ever wondered why Jesus used bread and wine to talk about his sacrifice for us? Explore Jesus’ last Passover meal for yourself and find out!
This sermonic demonstration of the ancient Passover Seder meal powerfully reveals the sacrificial ministry of Jesus as the Lamb of God, and uncovers the roots of the Christian communion, using the very elements God prescribed for the Seder itself. The 1-hour demonstration is an unforgettable journey through the “Last Supper,” which was, in fact, the Messiah’s last Passover Seder…until He returns!
Discover how this ancient holiday is GOOD NEWS for us today.

Marshalls Needed for Community Fundraiser (and we will make a donation on your behalf!)

October 30, 2018

Hi everyone, We just need a few more Marshalls and for each one we will donate $30 to the Omokoroa Fire Brigade and First Response Team. So if you have no plans on the morning of Sunday 11th Nov (and are not doing the event itself) we would love to have you help out. Here are some details:

It is super easy to be a Marshall – most of you will just need to make sure people are going in the right direction. A few of you will be at road crossings but the event is well sign posted and competitors have to give way to traffic. We will give you full instructions and a high vis. vest so all you need to do is direct and encourage people as they go past. You will need a cell phone to keep in touch with your coordinator and in case there is a first aid issue. For those of you who Marshalled last year – there is no bike event this time so it is only runners and walkers!

If you would like to know more or are keen to help please email Tammy Bruce at tammybruce@gmail.com. If you don’t have access to email you can call Catherine on 02102459106. You can find out more about the event at www.runrunrun.co.nz. Thanks for your support.

Breakfast with the birds at Maketu

October 30, 2018

Breakfast with the gulls at Maketu is the adventurous twist for this year’s annual meeting of the Maketu Ongatoro Wetland Society (MOWS) on Saturday 10 November.
The Annual General Meeting of MOWS is part of a morning with the birds at the Maketu Monument Reserve next to the Maketu Surf Club, starting at 7.30am.
It’ll pay to arrive early to make sure you don’t miss out on the guided tours of the shorebird breeding colony and a complimentary breakfast for everyone who takes a tour.
Trips across to the colony will be run every 20 minutes run by the Maketu Surf Lifesaving Club from 7.30am to 9pm. Adult lifejackets will be provided and parents of smaller children are asked to bring along their child’s life jacket.
Hosted by MOWS and sponsored by Western Bay of Plenty District Council and the Bay of Plenty Regional Council the morning is a great opportunity to view the impressive breeding colony of shorebirds, including the critically endangered black-billed gull and New Zealand dotterel.
Breakfast with the gulls is all part of MOW’s ongoing awareness of promoting the importance of the dune systems for providing habitat for wildlife, including the NZ Dotterel and black gulls.
Dune planting days are a highlight for local primary and intermediate students and are followed up with a public advocacy campaign where students design dune protection posters.
At breakfast with the gulls there’ll be a coffee cart on site and a complimentary breakfast from 8-9am for everyone who takes a tour, followed by the AGM at 9.15am in the Maketu Surf Club.
The event is free but koha is appreciated for the continuation of the many projects that MOWS does around the Maketu area and with local schools.
Registration for Breakfast with the Gulls can be done via Facebook https://www.facebook.com/events/552045841885532/ or email: Tania@maketuwetlands.org.nz
If the weather doesn’t oblige, the day will be postponed until 24 November with updates on Facebook.
