Choir concerts featuring Italian masterworks

Eric from Ranui

Voices in the Wind, Porirua's own choir, present their end of year concerts, featuring a selection of beautiful works by Italian masters through the ages, from Monteverdi to Verdi and Rossini, culminating in the timeless Magnificat by Durante. Not just classical pieces, but timeless Italian Christmas works as well! These concerts will be presented twice – the first on Friday evening 4 December at 7:30 pm in Khandallah (St Barnabas Church), and then again on Sunday 6 December at 3:00 pm in Raumati Beach (Kapiti Uniting Church). These concerts have been a long time coming - because of the pandemic we have been practicing much of this music for 10 months now! Adults $20, Unwaged $15, children under 12 free. Tickets available at door.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
