But you can still help.
The generosity of Kiwis has now secured the land's future as a public conservation park.
Further donations will help the trust restore the land to its former forested glory.

What would you like to see happen to St Gerard's
The historic church has closed because of its earthquake-prone status. Its owners made the decision after the owners struggled to raise the $11 million to $13m needed to pay for strengthening work. Only $42,000 had been donated by July 2020.

"Nature abhors a vacuum. The old adage has seen the white-fronted terns/tara (Sterna striata) move onto the Petone Wharf as a convenient perching spot for hawking (terning?) for fish. Such sleek birds, they turn on a dime, their brilliant white feathers catching the sun as they dive like professionals into the briny.
The old wharf, stretching almost 400m out into harbour, was closed (although a few foolhardy humans ignore the signs and climb the fence) in January for six weeks (hah!) for “urgent” repairs after the earthquakes over the New Year caused it to slump a bit in the middle. To be fair, the piles are infested with marine worms turning the ancient trunks into so much Swiss cheese and the bolts holding it all together are rustier than my first car, so it wouldn’t have taken much. Having seen a cross-section of a pile, I’m surprised it hasn’t collapsed before now. I am looking forward to it reopening though, I miss being able to walk so far out into the harbour – it’s where all the good stuff happens."

With this in mind, Porirua Libraries have created a series of programmes to help combat social isolation and enrich people’s daily lives.
“Some of our new programmes are about having fun and getting to know others – our book clubs, board games and non-fiction group – and others offer very practical help, like our free digital courses and technology help.”
People can book a free one-on-one session with a library technician for help. There are also a series of digital courses for seniors at the city centre library, covering a range of topics.
“We aren’t all super tech savvy, and that could mean people are missing out on meaningful opportunities,” says Noha Ibraham, the Digital Inclusion librarian.
For more information on all the programmes on offer visit porirualibrary.org.nz or pop in to your local branch.
