Live Day | Victorian Valentine's
Love is in the air at Howick Historical Village!
Step back in time to learn about the traditions of Valentine's Day. Decode the secret ‘Language of Flowers’ in a talk at 11:00 and 2:00. Make a card or scented lavender sachet for that special someone or purchase sweets for your sweet in the old-fashioned Sweet Shop! Stroll the picturesque streets and admire the beautiful gardens.
Churn cream into butter or attend a Victorian school lesson. With demonstrations of blacksmithing and bookbinding throughout the day, and performances by Morris dancers at 10:30 & 11:30, and the bagpipe band at 12 pm, there will be lots to entertain everyone!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
