Judith Gardiner - History of Hutt Valley High School

Posted by David Gledhill

Hutt Valley High School has for many years been an important feature of Lower Hutt, and Judith Gardiner gave a brief but most interesting account of its history, with historical photographs. Judith is in a particularly good position to recount the history as she has completed a number of family histories, has been a teacher aide there for 22 years and is also the school's archivist.

Te Omanga Hospice Collection

Thank you everyone who assisted with the Te Omanga Hospice collection at Queensgate last Saturday. This note has been received from the Te Omanga Hospice.

"The team at Te Omanga Hospice sincerely thank you and your members for volunteering at Farmers Queensgate for our Annual Street Appeal. Thanks to our kind volunteers, we have raised an amazing $31,500 over the 2 days! This will go a long way towards caring for Hutt Valley patients with a life limiting or terminal illness and provide much needed support for their families".

What Members do in their "Spare Time"

Posted by Brian Clarke

After retiring following 52 years in the public service in 2017 it was a change of pace I was looking forward to: a mix of physical work on our property in Mount Marua, church leadership, Rotary and of course overseas travel in the mix. Within a couple of years that dream began to change as Mary and I downsized and moved into our new home in Silverstream; Mary retired March 2020 when Covid and subsequent lockdowns came along.

So the question is “do we have spare time”?? The short answer is ‘we don’t seem to have much.”
