Hi everyone. If you didn't make it to last weekends garden open days we're happy to let you know our garden will be open again this weekend, tomorrow and Sunday 10 am until 3.30pm
at 34 St Johns Tce, Tawa.
Despite the terrible weather the tulip displays are looking beautiful with more bulbs coming into flower everyday. There is much to enjoy so please do come along and explore.

We have opened our garden, entry by donation, as a fundraiser for the final production of Massey University's Creative Media Production students. Our eldest son is a member of this team.

Let's hope the weather is better than last weekend.



Thank you for your support.

The hunt is on for sports gear to help Porirua youngsters play sport.
The community sports bank at Te Rauparaha Arena is approaching its first birthday, and the call has gone out for summer sports gear.
Sports equipment for the sports bank is donated by clubs, sports organisations, the public and from lost and found at council recreation centres and swimming pools. It’s then given to tamariki to remove some of the cost barriers of playing sport - which has significant social and physical benefits.

Schools, police, coaches, clubs and other agencies identify those in need, who can then access the equipment for free, using a printed card they are issued.

Anyone with items to donate can contact Keith Tahere at Te Rauparaha Arena - Keith.tahere@poriruacity.govt.nz
