Hi everyone,

We're wondering how many may be interested in an "old time" film photography club/group.

The difference to the usual photography club is that we are interested in keeping alive the art of film developing, and printing, and of course taking photos with analog cameras.  No previous experience necessary. We can all learn together.

We would be keen on hearing from you if you are interested, and especially if you know if a location where we might establish a community dark room. There is funding available for equipment and supplies, sponsored by the Museum group.

You can email us at

thor.corrine@xtra.co.nz and leslie.vangelder@gmail.com. 

This part-time position has become available at Glenorchy School. Duties include lawn mowing, spraying and weed eating throughout the season (mid September - mid April).

For further information about the position, please contact the Principal, Paula Miller, at principal@glenorchy.school.nz 

Applications close on Monday 4 October at 4:00pm. 

We are looking for expressions of interest from people keen to run a stall/food at the Glenorchy Races January 2022.

Calling for evening food options as well.

Please write a letter of application and email to lakesiderugbyclub@gmail.com

Applications close 31 October
