Rental

Hi Newlanders! 

Our family of three is currently looking for a rental property in the area and would love it if you could throw any leads our way. Ideally we would love three bedrooms, a decent backyard to grow veggies in and a bit of storage space. Our budget is up to $450 a week but negotiable for the right house. We have excellent references, we both work and we are looking to settle, so long term is preferred. 

Please call or text Kaz on 0422 657 242 if you have any suggestions. We are very happy to help out if you need to break your lease and want a hassle free transfer.

Stolen

Hi Newlanders

Someone stole our car from our front yard in George St, Preston on Thursday morning - 6.30am. We suspect that they came into the house when I left to take the dog for a walk - leaving the door unlocked and Phil my partner inside - and helped themselves to the key. They then waited for Phil to leave for work before stealing the car. At 6.34am the car was driven past me on Benambra St while I was on my walk.

On the off chance it's still in the area, or anyone saw it on that morning, it is a dark grey Honda Civic Hatch - registration 1BD-5FZ with 3 bike carriers on the roof. Image below.

Rental Required

Looking for a 2 or 3 bedroom house to rent in Coburg/CoburgNorth/Preston area. 

Friends of mine are looking to move from Fitzroy North and would love to live in this community. They are a couple in their mid-thirties who are reliable, honest, and would make very good tenants. They would also take good care of a garden. If anyone knows of any places, could you comment below, or text me on 0466 631 151. 

Thank you, Georgina.

Market

A Plus Market is starting 2015 with a bang! Having outgrown the original Darebin venue in the first year of business, A Plus Market will be held at Darebin’s own cultural hub, The Darebin Arts and Entertainment Centre on Sunday, February 22, 2015.

The brainchild of local mum, Erin Cox A Plus Market is the only of its kind in Australia; a regular community market specifically for plus size women. New designs are showcased along pre-loved fashions with each and every piece offered being a ‘plus size’. This fresh take on a fashion market hits all the right chords with its ‘Shop sustainably and ethically’ ethos, community and body positive attitude.  

As a 'plus size' woman herself, Ms Cox explains “Years of shopping disappointments left me discouraged. I found myself wishing for a place where I could find bargains and one-off pieces in my size – but there just wasn't anywhere – so, I’ve decided to do something about it.”

With the average Australian women identifying as ‘plus size ‘  there is a huge demand for  alternative shopping experiences. The overwhelming response A Plus Market received in its first year is testament to this.

Ms Cox states “Women are delighted, many approaching me in tears, hugging me, rejoicing that they now have a welcoming community and a myriad of fashion choices”

Australian plus size women are also becoming more and more discernible in their fashion tastes; demanding quality fabrics, fashion forward designs,  ethical and sustainable choices -  A Plus Market has been created to meet these needs; showcasing the wonderful independent Plus Size designers emerging from our own backyard alongside women from the community recycling their pre-loved fashions.

Ms Cox is excited to be bringing A Plus Market to a larger more prominent venue saying,  “The demand to be involved is so high, every Darebin market to date sold out and sold out fast. I had to turn too many away. 
Moving to the Arts and Entertainment Centre is great, we can now accommodate for the demand.
The shopper will benefit too,  A Plus Market will be bigger and better, offering even more choice”

A Plus Market will be held on Sunday 22^nd of February, 2015 from 10am – 3pm at the Darebin Arts and Entertainment Centre, Corner of Bell and St Georges Road.

Historical Documents

Hello fellow Newlanders,

On behalf of Newlands Primary School I am looking for printed material from its first few decades (50s to 80s). In particular I am looking at the ways in which the primary school presented its crest (logo) and name. This could be student reports, Mother’s Club paperwork, correspondence which has the school letterhead on it, library cards, certificates, awards, photographs with the school logo and uniforms etc.

I have access to Coburg Library’s copy of Newlands Primary School: encouraging excellence 1950-2000 anniversary celebration by Ellie Vrangalas but if anyone has a copy that I can use for a period of time that would be most appreciated.

Please don't hesitate to contact me on 0409 961 525 or email me on studio@sarahdunk.com if you have anything that you think might fit the bill, or a bit beyond! I am happy to look at documents in a way that suits you and discuss duplication.

Many thanks,

Sarah Dunk.
