A big part of Matariki is remembering our loved ones who have passed on ❤️ last year we invited community members to bring a photo of their loved ones to sit on the stage so we could see them and acknowledge them. This year we also invite you to send a photo of your loved one to our email: [email protected] and in the subject line write Matariki picture so we can create a slideshow to be projected on the big screen ❤️ how beautiful for us to remember our loved ones together. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Mānawatia a Matariki

"As your Nutrition and Wellness Practitioner, I provide comprehensive services to guide and help you feel the confidence and support you need to overcome any mental and physical challenges you may face.

I am a qualified Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach I came across this exciting career path whilst I yearned for positive change in my own life without turning to even more medications and unnecessary chemicals. I have ENJOYED learning a completely new way of living which has led me to losing a significant amount of weight, throwing away several debilitating health conditions such as liver disease, leaky gut, fibromyalgia and infertility - and vastly improving my outlook on life.

Researching and practicing cooking and eating high vibrational plant based foods and beverages has been a complete game changer in my life. I now offer in person and online consultations, in person cooking classes, recipes, meal plans, sample catering and seminars that will aid you in easily incorporating some of these practices into your daily life so that you may reap the benefits too!"
