New Te Wharepōuri street sign unveiled!
Yesterday we unveiled the new, corrected street sign for Te Wharepōuri Street – previously known as Waripori Street, in Berhampore.
Students from South Wellington Intermediate celebrated the moment with an awesome kapa haka performance tamariki from the local Berhampore Kindergarten came along to join the celebrations.
The new street name recognises Te Wharepouri, a chief of Te Āti Awa, who travelled to the Wellington region from Taranaki in 1832.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
