AUGUST 2025
St Heliers Ladies Probus Club
Tuesday 12 August 2025, 2pm at the Community Centre 100 St Heliers Bay Rd.
Today our speaker is John Reynolds, a New Zealand freelance writer, educationalist and broadcaster. He has travelled widely teaching in London, Canada and Zimbabwe and traveling many parts of the world. He is a very entertaining speaker.
Tuesday 19th August Diva exhibition at the museum (note change of date from July newsletter.)
Several of our members have already been and highly recommend this exhibition of costumes worn by famous singers over the last 100 or so years. See July’s newsletter for details. I will book for 10:30 which means leaving St Heliers about 9:30. Cost $23 and as the car drivers may have to pay for parking, don’t forget some help towards their expenses. Please sign the trip book as you come in and indicate if you are willing to drive. While Diane is preparing afternoon tea, I ask those going to get together with me to sort out whose cars we are taking. If you can’t come to Tuesdays meeting and want to go to the exhibition please email me .
