Make a poi
Come along to a poi making workshop at 10.30am. This workshop is best suited for children 8 years and older. Caregivers can grab a coffee but are expected to supervise their children during the programme. We will make our own poi from t-shirts (bring an old t-shirt, if you can) and wool, then learn from Moana how to make them swirl.

Moana Ormsby is the Kaiwhakaako at the National Library and kapa haka tutor. The learning team will make the Pūkana tour fun for tamariki.
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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
