Free, fun & educational school holiday activities at WestCity Waitakere
The WestCity Explorers Fern & Nikau will host a nature themed educational school holiday programme from 1st – 12th October (10am – 2.30pm on weekdays only).
Week 1: Sunflower planting - we’re welcoming spring with a very colourful sunflower planting activity. Children will feel like little gardeners and learn all about Sunflowers. They’ll plant and take home their own Sunflower seeds to grow at home.
Week 2: Worm Farm fun - kids will learn all about the life cycle of worms, plus create and take home their very own worm farm!
WestCity Waitakere is the place to be these school holidays, so come join in the fun with our free and educational kids activities this October!
Please note bookings will be taken on the day.

Amazingly quiet night in Green Bay
All the Best for the New Year! The last few years they started banging days earlier already, but this year it was amazingly quiet. Now either people suddenly got smart and care about animals and the environment (which I don’t believe for a second) or it’s the clearest sign of the Cost of Living Crisis we are in. I’m just glad I can make a damn fine bread for under a dollar.
