Matariki: Arts, Crafts, Films, and Talks

Howick Historical Village Pakuranga, Auckland from Howick Historical Village

Howick Historical Village is honouring Matariki through a kōrero, spoken word reading and short film screening from Indigenous Māori and Pacific storytellers and filmmakers in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Join us in Puhi Nui parlour on Friday 28 June 2024 from 12:30pm - 1:30pm to listen to poems from published spoken word poet Ivy Lyden-Hancy and watch the compelling short films by South Auckland raised filmmaker Trina Lealavaa-Ama.

You can also head down to Pakuranga School house to make your own Matariki-inspired arts and crafts or explore the Village using our Matariki themed trail booklets.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
