Arena Aquatics back in action
Arena Aquatics is back in action following important maintenance work to ensure this popular facility can continue to be enjoyed by all.
Staff were excited to open the doors to the public again last week after three weeks which had the building full of contractors rather than swimmers.
Much of the maintenance work focused behind the scenes, in the pool plant and filtration areas. The public areas also received a refresh.
To celebrate Arena Aquatics’ reopening, we are inviting tamariki to enter a drawing competition, where they can draw themselves and their whānau enjoying a dip in the toddlers’ pool. There will be swim passes and other goodies up for grabs – keep an eye on the Council Facebook page for more details.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
