The day he died, Aporo Joyce planted out his vegetable garden. That night, the 79-year-old was hit …
Will the risk of dust and noise as groundwork impact you?
Every year, over 11,000 brave men and women keep us safe. Most of them are working full-time jobs. Many are parents or grandparents. When the siren sounds, they all come running.
If you know a fire volunteer, this is your chance to say thanks. #cheerstothevolunteers

Three secondary schools took part: Bishop Viard College, Porirua College, and Te Kura Maori o Porirua. Each provided two contestants, who were welcomed and introduced by Club President Peter Cox.
The order of speaking was decided by ballot, and the contest was run under international rules, with each contestant having a maximum speaking time of seven minutes.
Contestants chose their own topics, which tended towards the controversial. All spoke eloquently, and most spurned the use of notes. The large audience was attentive and appreciative of the students’ efforts. The students carried themselves with great pride and aplomb.
The club provided seven judges, plus a tie-breaker judge. While the judges deliberated, Mayor Mike Tana treated the audience to some reminiscences and shared a family secret with us.
All the contestants were presented with certificates of participation, and the three winners received handsome trophies, thanks to Harcourts Real Estate.
In first place was Murray Faivalu from Porirua Collete who spoke about, 'Stop trying to fit in - embrace your true self'.
Second was Siosiana Schaumkel from Bishop Viard College who spoke about, 'The Disease - racism'.
and third was Roseta Lopa from Porirua College who spoke about 'The influences of music'.
The College Cup was awarded to Porirua College.
Thanks are due to David Knight and Bill McAulay who Book presentation organised the event for the club, the judges, and Wendy Betteridge who gave each student a copy of her book “It’s your thoughts that count”.

"I was suspicious of the establishment at the time. You need to understand, I had grown up a welfare-dependent "half-caste" (I hate that term) boy living with his mother, escaping from a life of alcohol, crime and a level of violence that I would not tolerate for my daughters. An under-achiever, I was expelled from two secondary schools. I feel I had a reason to be angry at "the system".
"Then I became a father. It changed my life. I needed to be a responsible adult caring for a son, then a daughter – eventually seven children. We were young parents and wanted to do only the best for these precious beings.
"I read the pamphlet. It described "studies" in the Netherlands into communities that didn't look like mine, but I took little persuasion. I stated our second child, our little daughter Te Miringa, would not be immunised.
"At the time my wife Tracy was working as a nurse at the local medical centre and immunising children daily. Yet this was my protest against the establishment that I so mistrusted.
"Fifteen months later, we had a scare. Te Miringa became unwell with high fever and a body rash and the doctors were concerned as there was a measles outbreak locally. And I realised the information from the Netherlands did not reflect my reality.
"We got Te Miringa immunised."
