Ongoing monitoring of toxic algae in the Waipoua River at Colombo Road has confirmed that toxic algae cover is currently low, meaning the warning that has been place since before Christmas has been removed.

There is still a lot of algae in the river at this site, but the composition has changed. Most of the algae is a species of diatom – slimy but harmless. The close-up below shows a rock that is mostly covered by the diatom species – it’s yellowy/green and bumpy in appearance. You can also see a couple of patches of Phormidium or toxic algae. In the other picture you can clearly see small patches of toxic algae (the dark brown/black patches) amongst large patches of diatom growth.

It’s safe to use the river, but please remain cautious if you are taking your dog down there and make sure they don’t eat anything suspicious (even a small amount of toxic algae can be lethal if they eat it).

On the western side of the region, there is a water quality warning in place for Porirua Harbour at the Rowing Club. The latest sample recorded high bacterial counts which means the site is currently unsafe for swimming. This may have been due to recent rain in the area – rainfall flushes contaminants from land into waterways and we advise you not to swim for at least two days after rainfall, even if a site generally has good water quality.

Our growing choir turns five this year and is looking for new members to join the fun. We rehearse in Upper Hutt and work with children 4+ through to teens.There are no auditions to join the Major Minors and there are 5 year long scholarships currently available.

Our first rehearsal for 2017 is on Sunday 29 January at The Spot, in Upper Hutt.

Behind the scenes are qualified musicians who run the choir voluntarily and have lots of experience working with developing voices.

We also have an auditioned extension group for more musically experienced/capable singers - The Harmonic Minors. This group performs on their own, gives vocal assistance to the Major Minors and provides leadership opportunities working with the younger children. Auditions are being held on Sunday 29 January at 4pm after the Major Minors rehearsal

Outdoor performances are planned for local destinations this year and we will be defending the Challenge Cup in the under 18 Choir section of the Hutt Valley Performing Arts Competitions in July....again! Concerts are also planned locally and further afield.

For more details check out majorminors.instantencore.com , email us on hvkidschoir@gmail.com or give us a call.

Not that that’s likely because, following our inspection of the foundations, all appears to be solid as a rock!

The work, done by GW’s Parks Department along with a team of specialist engineers, was undertaken as part of our dam safety assurance programme.
