What's On - Churton Park Community Centre

Hi Everyone

Well, we’re getting into the pointy end of the year now, with lots of Christmas-related notices starting to sneak in! A good time to get those important dates marked in the calendar as things start to get busier! For what’s coming up next week, please click here.

ON THIS WEEK
** Playsense Baby Playgroup **
On Tuesday we have our monthly playgroup for under 18-month olds.  Fun and stimulating activities facilitated by a trained Early Years Practitioner, including sensory play and singing. A great opportunity to meet other carers of small children. $3 per child. Please note, for the safety of the babies, the under 18-month age limit is strictly adhered to.

** Revolve Fitness Free Seminar: Increase energy and feel great for summer **
Join Nutritionist Jordan Crosbie and Exercise Consultant Lucy Newrick for a free seminar with simple and easy tips for maintaining the energy you need to do everything you want. Wednesday 6th November 7.30pm. Register your spot via email: Jordan@nutritionx.co.nz.

** Rainbow Divinity Seminar **
Qualified Energy Therapist, Jansie Bond speaks on the topic “A Colourful Life: It is not the things we have to learn in life, but the things we have to unlearn that can make the difference to how we live our lives”.

COMING SOON – MARK YOUR CALENDARS
** Churton Park Craft Market **
There’s a great line up of craft stalls attending the inaugural Churton Park Craft Market from 6pm on Friday November 15th here at CPCC. Get on top of your Christmas shopping, see some of our local little stars performing and take advantage of special offers from our local retailers. Free entry.

** Churton Park Carols at the Park **
Churton Park Carols has had a change of venue from that previously advised. Same date - Friday 13thDecember - but now being held at Churton Park on Halswater Drive. Bring a picnic tea from 6.30pm, with your favourite carols to starting at 7pm. Join in with the Salvation Army Band and a composite choir for a memorable evening of singing for the whole family!

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
** Cycling Group **
The Churton Park Cycling Group will get together with bikes for fun ride around Churton Park on 9 November, followed by then coffee. For more information, including meeting time and place, please contact Anne Haddon:  amhaddon@gmail.com.

** Seeds, Seedlings & Produce Swap **
With summer (hopefully) approaching, I am thinking about starting a Seeds, Seedlings and Produce Swap out of CPCC. How would it work? You’d bring in your excess home-grown produce, seeds or seedlings and I can let the community know that they are here, free to a good home or to swap for other produce. After all, one person’s excess tomatoes is another persons chutney-making heaven! Any produce left at the end of the week could be donated to our friends at Kiwi Community Assistance. I’d really like a volunteer or two to help me work out the best way to run this and I’d like to know whether you think that this is a good idea! Let me know what you think.

COMMUNITY NOTICES
