As part of our work installing a new bulk watermain in eastern Porirua, we are about to commence work on installing a chamber and more pipework at the intersection of Conclusion St and Warspite Ave, Waitangirua.

From tomorrow, a one-way system will be in place with a detour route along Conclusion Street and Desert Gold Street.

Please avoid Warspite Ave where possible due to increased traffic. Where possible we will open two lanes for peak periods and out of hours.

Dovetale Press want to give people living with
dementia the pleasure of sharing a great read at
the public library, improving social connection
and confidence. If successful, their Kickstarter
campaign will provide six sets of five Dovetale
Press dementia-friendly books to 20 New
Zealand public libraries. That’s 600 books in all,
or a set of books for shared reading in a group
of six people at 20 public libraries across New
Zealand. If pledging meets 200% success, then
40 libraries will benefit with 1200 books shared
in groups, and so forth. Participating libraries
also receive a digital resource with suggestions
on how to run a dementia-friendly book group.
The Dovetale Press series has been produced
after years of research into reading and
dementia, through the University of Otago and
with support from Bupa NZ.

"Kia ora – James Lough from New World Porirua here. Keen to discover a new top drop in time for summer?

My favourite wine from this year’s New World Wine Awards is the Tohu Single Vineyard Riesling and for many reasons! First, it’s delicious with a zingy acidity. Secondly, it has a great story - all wine should start a conversation and the people behind this wine and their governance of the land give you plenty of that. Lastly, the wine sums up what the New World Wine Awards is all about: helping customers discover new wines that surprise and delight.” And Bob Dunkerly from New World Thorndon’s pick is the Stoneleigh Latitude Marlborough Chardonnay. “It’s an excellent wine, with delicious stone fruit flavours. It’s very approachable for anyone wanting to give Chardonnay a try.”

Come into your local New World and explore the Top 50 Gold-medal winning wines – we have winners for every budget. Plus join us for complimentary wine sampling and try before you buy.
