We will be helping out with the Motutapu Restoration Trust with their regular tree-planting volunteer days on Sunday 16th August. Want to join us? Email Teresa now! Some more details:

• The ferry leaves Downtown at 9.15am, and Devonport at 9.25am, and costs $20 ($10 for children). We’ll return at approximately 4.30pm
• Meeting place: nder the arch of the Ferry Building, Downtown, next to the foreign exchange bureau, from 8.45am to 9.00am

You’ll need to bring the following:
