MARCH 2006
How time marches on! We are now into Autumn and it hasn't come
too soon for me.
I am heartily sick of the hot weather and look forward to the
cooler days. Those of you who are connected to the town water
supply will have been able to keep gardens watered during this
very warm dry weather.
DOGS!
You may have noticed the Dog Ranger around the village quite frequently
lately. This is in response to many complaints about roaming dogs.
Dog owners need to be aware that dogs wandering onto farm land
and harassing farmer's stock may be shot forthwith. One resident
was very disturbed to lose a kitten and all that remained of it
was a pile of fur and the tip of it's tail. As we have said many
times before most of our dog owners are responsible but one or
two of these half starved animals that menace people going about
their lawful business are in danger of being trapped by the ranger
and put down. And some of us say the sooner the better!!! So those
of you who are guilty PLEASE keep your animals confined to your
own back yard.We do not want to report a tragedy. To lose a kitten
is bad enough and who knows next time it could be a child.
NEW RESIDENTS.
With all the new housing going up in the village we extend a welcome
to you and hope you are finding Sanson a friendly place to live.
A special welcome to the Magaya family who originate from Zimbawe.
Kadzar Magaya has taken over the delivery of the Feilding Herald,
Tribune and the other fliers from Heather who has delivered them
for the last four years.
SANSON SCHOOL
Friends of the School has a raffle circulating at the moment.
The prize is a Play Station and a 14 inch T.V. and games. Only
$2 per ticket. The Raffle will be drawn on March 24th. Shortly
children will be around imploring you to buy Cadbury Moro bars
and Caramello and Dairy Milk Chocolate. Please support our children
as they raise money for classroom resources.
Dave and Lily Warren have retired from caretaking the school .They
have been doing this important job for 24 years and a very well
attended afternoon tea was held at the school last Friday to farewell
them. All the best in your retirement Lily and Dave!
SANSON COMMUNITY LIBRARY
We recently had our book change and there are still a number of
books from the previous consignment to be returned. On tidying
up my house I found a couple of books that I was sure had been
returned so we would encourage borrowers to have a look for these
titles which have gone missing. Harry Potter and the Philosophers
Stone; Crafty Kids; Sing Hey Diddle Diddle; Metro nui; Sensational
Vegetable Recipes.
Remember our photo-copying service at 10c per copy!
