Matariki in Porirua
Matariki will be celebrated at Te Rauparaha Arena in Porirua from 24 June to 3 July, with a packed programme of star-filled events that will delight young and old.
Porirua Mayor Anita Baker says Matariki, which signals the start of the Māori new year, is a special time when we reflect on the year that’s been, acknowledge people who have passed, and look ahead.
“It’s become a new tradition in our city to have Te Rauparaha Arena decked out and it’s going to look wonderful.”
We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!
