Gibbs farm is no ordinary farm, world famous artists have had the opportunity to sculpt their creativity into something huge. The sculptures can be seen from far away. It’s located by the Kaipara harbor. The largest harbor in the Southern Hemisphere. WINGS had this opportunity to visit the farm. A fine sunny day made it just perfect to enjoy the sculpture a and the animals on the farm. The friends Giraffes, Zebra, water buffaloes, the every so curios sheep, lamas could be see

7 ladies met at a member's home on a rainy day to practice drawing and watercolor painting. Expertly led by Cecilia. They attempted a sketch which was upside down. It certainly made them concentrate with some hilarious results. After morning tea, they had a short painting session of flowers. Great fun, good company and tasty home baking. Do join them next time.

A few WINGS ladies and partners met at Nymet - a garden extraordinaire, early on Sunday. The weather was sunny and warm allowing us to amble around the paths filled with wonderful spring flowers and trees of all hues. Mrs. Sanders, opens her garden annually to support the SPCA. We enjoyed great fellowship over coffee and cake, served by the volunteers.

What a fun evening that was! Poi Dance evening was not only about dancing it was more to that. Did you know the Poi has a family tree? Interesting isn't? The lovely Alice showed us and educated us about the Poi. We also made our own Poi's. It was a very interactive night.
