Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

The Kowhai Singers are very excited to bring a stunning and rarely heard performance of Haydn’s Maria Theresa Mass. It is an extraordinarily beautiful piece of choral music, with fugues, arias, florid bel canto lines, and dramatic contrasts. All supported with a world-class line up of soloists and accompanists.
