Upper Hutt has reopened a $3.8 million play area which has been touted as an attraction for families around the Wellington region.
Maidstone Max features a completely remodelled playground with accessible features for wheelchair users, state-of-the-art skate park, pump track and half basketball court following a nine-month redevelopment.
Mayor Wayne Guppy​ fired a confetti cannon at the grand opening on Saturday with the help of local kids who were let loose on the facility for the first time.
“It’s not just an investment in our youth and young people. It’s an investment in Upper Hutt as a family-oriented city.”

With 1 in 3 people who die in the Hutt Valley supported by Te Omanga Hospice, the need for our service is great. Each year more than 500 people living with a terminal or life limiting illness receive our compassionate care and support.

Help keep our services free to patients, their families and whānau, by giving generously when you see an official volunteer collecting in the Hutt Valley or you can donate online today.

Last year we were unable to hold our street collection due to Covid-19, but this year we can make a difference, together.

Thank you for your support.

Meet Gabe, who is deaf but sounds like a lot of fun.

"I was transferred from Porirua Animal Control. I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time! I am a loveable boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."

Every Friday morning dozens of people who suffer from strokes, Parkinson's disease and other neurological conditions fill up a Porirua dance hall to dosey doe, salsa, and disco dance.
But they are not just there for fun, but to improve their brains.
Dancing has so many beneficial effects on the brain that it is now being used to treat people with Parkinson’s disease, which affects about 1 in 500 Kiwis.
“Motion is lotion, getting people moving is really important,” dance leader and physiotherapist Rachel Horwell​ said.
