SUMMARY:Permaculture Training
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\nA five-and-a-half-day intensive workshop that will empower you to teach permaculture effectively. \nWhen: November 11th -17th November\nWhere: Taranaki \nCost:  Check here \nThis experiential course is designed to enable participants to teach permaculture using unique and proven methods that can be applied to any teaching environment. These methods have been honed by the tutors over decades of educational experience. \nRobina McCurdy (Earthcare Education Aotearoa) and Finn Mackesy (Auckland Permaculture Workshop) are passionate about teaching pedagogy\, permaculture education and curriculum development. They have worked together on a range of projects for over a decade and provide complementary teaching and facilitation styles and approaches to permaculture education. \nJoin us for a practical professional development training to gain more confidence in facilitating dynamic and transformational learning experiences\, discovering/honing your unique teaching style\, and to continue your journey in permaculture and positive-change education. \nThis workshop will embody permaculture ethics and principles\, and focus equally on quality of delivery\, facilitation skills and deep content knowledge. \nGeneral topics: \n\nBuilding a learning community\nAko & effective pedagogy\nPatterns of learning\nTeaching for information & transformation\nGoal setting for learning outcomes\nOrienting learning for specific audience/target group\nCurriculum and programme design\nScene setting & logistic coordination\nWorking as a teaching team\nBudgeting & marketing\nMentorship\nNext Steps in your teaching journey\n\nConsider this training as a professional development opportunity that will bring valuable skills to your organisation and could qualify for funding through your organisation. \nCourse fees include food. \nAccommodation is not included in the course fees but a limited amount of onsite accommodation options are available. Camping is $5/night and a shared room is $10/night. Let us know at the time of registration if you are interested in onsite accommodation. Alternatively\, there are a range of local accommodation options that should suit participants’ needs. \nPublic transport is available from New Plymouth to Inglewood. Also\, we anticipate many participants travelling from the national Permaculture Hui directly to the course so carpooling options are likely. \nNote: A PDC (Permaculture Design Certificate) is a prerequisite for this training. However\, we are reserving three places for sustainability\, community resilience and regenerative practitioners who are wanting to upskill as educators and facilitators utilising permaculture design methodology. \n  \nTestimonials \n“It was a great course\, I highly recommend it :)”  Leo Murray \n“This is more than Permaculture Teacher Training! It is adult education training which has reinforced many models and processes I have previously learned\, working with adults by exploring the many ways people learn. I can highly recommend these tutors\, their facilitation skills will enhance your journey and challenge your development to become great PC teachers. I especially liked the “curtains up/curtains down” approach to debrief the processes. Every WWOOFer and PDC student I work with benefits from my experience of this course and the resources received are top notch! \nClare Wimmer \n“I gained a lot out of the course that I attended in 2016. Since then I have moved from being a shop manager into a business partner with 2 others to teach permaculture in Canterbury. It also created developments within other permaculture projects I’m involved.  I thoroughly enjoyed the course\, the skills and knowledge received from Robina & Finn’s passionate teaching is enormous\, I wish I could attend again this year!” \nLillee Star

SUMMARY:Tinkd Makerspace : Repair Café
DESCRIPTION:The perfect opportunity to have broken belongings assessed or repaired is right around the corner. \nTauranga hoarders\, tinkerers and holders of broken gadgets can rejoice\, as Tauranga’s Repair Café pop up  opens up on the last Saturday of each month at 148 Durham Street\, Tauranga. Get your objects fixed for free! Volunteers try to repair items destined for landfill. Get your objects fixed for free! \nRepair Cafés are described as “free pop-up events” where local people can bring in their “broken or damaged belongings” to local volunteers\, who do their best to repair or assess them. \nTauranga is joining the global movement with its own Repair Café with a volunteer driven initiative as part of Tinkd Makerspace. \nAccording to a spokesperson\, Repair Cafés aim to reduce waste and overconsumption. \nThey also encourage and foster the “do it yourself” spirit and strengthen social connections by bringing different members of the community together. \n“The purpose of these events is two-fold: to try to change our “throwaway culture” and to bring people in the community together. An added bonus is that it saves people money\,” says founder of Tinkd Makerspace\, Steven Vincent. \n“If their item can be repaired they don’t need to replace it\, pay for more expensive repairs elsewhere\, or send it to the landfill. If the item can’t be repaired\, then at least we’ve tried! \nFor more information and tickets to the next Repair Café event\, visit the Tinkd website. \nWhen: Last Saturday of the month\nTime: 9.30am – 11.30am\nWhere: Tinkd Makerspace\, 148 Durham St Tauranga \nThe organisers are looking for more volunteer repairers with different skill sets to add to the events. It’s free to attend with an item but pre-booking an item is preferred as it allows the organisers to prepare for any repairs.
