Thank you so much

Hello Newlands People!

We are the family who were the amazed recipients of the funds raised from the last clothes swap... Living with cancer is no fun but some of the kindness that flows towards us from kind people like yourselves is overwhelming and reaffirming that, whether we know you or not, we are all in this together.

Thank you so much, Katrine, Andrew, Iggy and Solly

(ps we are tossing up whether to spend the money on going out and having some overdue fun or something boring like bills!:))

Black Wig?

Would anyone be willing to lend me a black, bob-type wig for a costume party on Saturday night? Preferably shoulder length but I’ll be happy with anything.

I promise to take good care of it and can return it on Sunday.

Please contact Melanie at melaniejoymcgrath@yahoo.com.au

Looking for Composting Systems...

Hello!
Newlands Primary School are beginning to get composting systems up and running at the school.
We are looking for any bits and bobs that are taking up room in your garden shed.
Do you have an old worm farm or compost bin that you no longer need? Or even a bit of one? We have quite a few compost bins without lids!
Mel will come and pick donated things up a a time that suits you.
Please call Mel if you would like to offload your old composting system!
