Come shopping in Cambridge Friday 13 April!
The much anticipated awards ceremony for
the annual Cooney Insurance Short Story
Competition. With a record number of
entries, it promises to be an exciting evening.
R13 - Taika Waititi teams up with
Jemaine Clement to present this
bloody comedy about the travails
of a flat of vampires. Reality TV-
style cameras tag the vamps as
they struggle to get into nightclubs,
squabble over chores and face off
werewolves. A roster of Kiwi comedic
talent (including Rhys Darby) feature
in this fangtastic film. Get dressed up.
Prize for best Friday the 13th costume!
Enjoy a 17km traverse up and along the
Whitehall ridge, through nine beautiful

off to Lovers Rock with the Shire on
your left, finishing with a down-hill bush walk into the valley. All
proceeds to maintenance of Whitehall Settlers Hall.
From the Japanese word for ‘chit-
chat,’ Pecha Kucha celebrates the
unique stories we all have to tell. Pecha
Kucha Nights give a platform to a
wide range of people, to speak on a
diversity of topics. Each presenter has
just 20 seconds for each of their 20
images. Pecha Kucha events connect
people, fuel conversation & inspire
thinking with topics ranging from the intellectual to the
sublime to the hilarious. Join us for an evening celebrating
innovation, design and the human experience.
A unique event for mothers
and primary school aged
girls, which shows how
easy it is to celebrate in a
sustainable way. Join us
for great local food, fun
activities and a good dose
of inspiration. Brought to you by Mainstream Green, with
