PUBLISHED BY THE PREBBLETON COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION INC. (EST. 1975)

Hello fellow residents. Welcome to our 2nd edition of Prebbleton Life.

April is traditionally the last month for Outdoor Events and Activities where we can hope for some warm days before winter sets in.

Let’s hope Climate Change has not altered this as we look forward to many outdoor activities.

Daylight Saving ends on Sunday 2nd April which is the same day as our Giant Pumpkin Market combined with a Fruit and Vege Exchange. So if you arrive and find the setup still in progress then check your watch has been turned back 1 hour.

The following weekend is Easter Weekend so many residents will have planned activities with respect to Family, Friends and Church.

The school holidays follow:- and right on the heels of this is the ANZAC COMMEMORATION on Tues 25th April.

You will find details for these events and further information in this newsletter along with interesting articles about Life in Prebbleton.

Remember that if you have any Prebbleton Community concerns please do not hesitate to either email the PCA Committee at prebbletoncommunityassn@gmail.com or phone me on 021 295 6590

Looking forward to meeting with you and your families for April’s activities.
