Remember the Titans is a film set in 1971 in Virginia high school. At that time football was everything to the people of Alexandria. But when the school board was forced to integrate an all-black school with an all-white one, the very foundation of football's tradition was put to the test.

Matariki signals the Māori New Year. It is a time of renewal and celebration in Aotearoa that begins with the rising of the Matariki star cluster, and this year is officially celebrated on Friday 14 July with a public holiday.
The challenge is to create an illuminated artwork to mark this special event. Create a light lantern, light sculpture or light display which encompasses the essence or a component of Matariki to be in to win a class, business, or household lunch shout! Be as resourceful and creative as you like but you need to ensure your entry is battery-powered, transportable and represents Matariki.
There are three categories:
• Best in Business (team max 30)
• Best Class in School (class max 30)
• Best in Residential (household)
The Te Papa website is full of information and inspiration, visit tepapa.govt.nz and search Matariki. To enter, email a photo of your entry to events@tasman.govt.nz before noon on Friday 7 July.
We will then display your photo on our Facebook page and invite people to “like” their preferred entry in each category. The photo with the most “likes” in each category by the end of the competition wins.
All entrants are invited to bring along their creation and display it at Washbourn Gardens’ Matariki Celebration on Thursday 13 July where people can get a close-up look at entries and decide which is their favourite to vote for. The Facebook competition will open at noon Monday 10 July, and finish at noon Monday 17 July

Alexander McLean-Janet is a software engineer at Shuttlerock. Crypto enthusiast, he has spent the last 18 months investing in cryptocurrencies, buying NFTs, and recently, writing smart contracts. In his talk, he will:

2. share some dos and dont's based on his experience (wins/losses, getting scammed, influencers, FOMO...)
3. list skills that are thought out in the crypto industry
And of course a Q&A session.
Unfortunately due to low interest to this event we had to cancel it.
A gentle and calm space will be fostered while the invitation to explore thoughts and feelings using a blend of visual arts, nature-based arts and the written word will be offered. No artist skill is required and the emphasis is on process rather than how the end product may look.
There will be an opening and a closing incorporated into the session to allow time to settle in at the start and to reflect at the end. Gentle guidance will be offered in the form of small sequential steps towards creating a mandala together. This will include the opportunity to create on your own along with others.
The afternoon will be one of spaciousness, to allow time to be with what arrives during times of creating. There will also be a break for pizza. This workshop will be facilitated by registered and qualified creative arts therapist Lynda Jessen-Tye.
