Open Day
Thank you to everyone who came to visit the Centre to learn more about what we do.
We had around 200 people through the gates including the Governor-General, Her Excellency The Rt Hon Dame Cindy Kiro, local elected representatives, Cholmondeley children and students from Governor’s Bay and Christchurch schools.
With the help of a team of volunteers, we sold Cholmondeley-grown strawberry plants and local succulents, sausages and raffle tickets. The What Now team also brought some fun with their gunge machine! -
