Free, fun & educational school holiday activities at WestCity Waitakere
The WestCity Explorers Fern & Nikau will host a nature themed educational school holiday programme from 1st – 12th October (10am – 2.30pm on weekdays only).
Week 1: Sunflower planting - we’re welcoming spring with a very colourful sunflower planting activity. Children will feel like little gardeners and learn all about Sunflowers. They’ll plant and take home their own Sunflower seeds to grow at home.
Week 2: Worm Farm fun - kids will learn all about the life cycle of worms, plus create and take home their very own worm farm!
WestCity Waitakere is the place to be these school holidays, so come join in the fun with our free and educational kids activities this October!
Please note bookings will be taken on the day.

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?
