Porirua’s new strategies get launch day
Porirua’s Pacific and Māori strategies will be officially launched on Friday 15 December.
The Porirua City Māori Strategy Maungaroa 2050 will be launched with a morning tea at 8am held at Pātaka Art + Museum, while that evening, at Te Akapuanga Cook Islands Hall in Cannons Creek, there will be a night market to celebrate Ola Kamataga – Beginning of Life 2024-27.
The city’s Pacific strategy will be welcomed with food, entertainment, crafts and people in an evening that will undoubtedly have a festive feel.
Ola Kamataga – Beginning of Life 2024-27 and Maungaroa 2050 are milestone moments to strengthen the partnerships between Council and Porirua’s Māori and Pacific communities – who make up about 45 per cent of the city’s population.
