An evening time slot at AVCC has opened up, so I have reserved it for another yoga session. I wanted to check and see if you had a time preference? I was thinking 5:30 or 6 on Tuesday evenings. Let me know if you have a preference. I will be also be asking at class tomorrow.In health and happiness,Maggie

Having been a resident of the valley for over ten years I have had the pleasure of being a part of our beautiful, inclusive, diverse and unique community. Through my experiences here I have made many community connections which I hope to bring to the table, as well as new fresh perspective. I look forward to working with everyone in my role developing programmes, activities and events to serve the community. Come in with your ideas and say hi - don't be shy!

      • Well, it seems two of the folks who committed the recent spate of burglaries in our community have been arrested. Bummer for the victims, bummer for the perpetrators - we can only wish they are able to get the support they need now (but know it's sadly unlikely). No winners in this situation, but a good effort from our community constable and team, who are cautious to remind us that while they think "the pair have been involved in several recent burglaries in inner-city Wellington there may be other offenders or groups of offenders at work... (and) ... residents need to make sure their properties are secure 24 hours a day."

      • The bakehouse within the Aro Valley Heritage Area has been demolished. Wellington City Council gave non-notified resource consent for this to happen. A non-notifed consent means the public had no say in the loss of what is likely to be the last of these bakehouses in the Wellington region. Aro Valley has lost its link with the era before fire brigades. Back then bakeries had separate baking areas so that fires, which were common, did not destroy the main building! Your community council took action in the High Court to try and secure an opportunity for public input but was unsuccessful. The owners will build two town houses in place of the bakehouse, in a style that is out of character with the rest of the buildings. In a nutshell its all about making more money from an already profitable piece of property. The same people also own the other buildings facing Aro St, and we have to hope this isn't the beginning of a fully fledged assault on our community. Unfortunately it seems the heritage protections we fought long and hard for are much weaker in reality than they appear on paper.

      • Hey folks! Autumn seems to have arrived. The gardens are looking great (including a new path at the Secret Garden!) and there's still lots to harvest. We have a garden day this Saturday, 28 March, 10am at the Orchard (next to 225 Aro St). For your diaries, next 2 working bees are: Saturday 10 April - at the Secret Garden Saturday 24 April - at the Orchard. Anyone growing or have spare autumn/winter seedlings at home is welcome to share the love with the gardens - be in touch :) Hope to see you all soon Lillian.

      • Hey, this could be the proof we need: evidence that Aro Valley is no less sunny than any of the other inner-city/city fringe suburbs! Of course, our dehumidifiers may provide evidence to the contrary...

      • Hi all Our shed was broken into on about 10.15pm Sunday night. Two bikes, two skateboards and a freezer full of meat stolen. Neighbours also had two bikes stolen. One of the shops up the road also broken into while they were there and couple of things stolen. Some of the burglaries have been while people are in the house. Keep your doors (inside and outside sheds), windows and cars locked, and eyes open for anything unusual. If you see anything report it to 111 immediately. There's been a spate of burglaries here and this end of the Terrace. If you have been broken into and haven't reported it to the police because it's not worth it, I'd suggest you do so they have a good idea of exactly how much has been going on. Also let as many people as possible know. Ciao! Judy
