This is a free event and everyone is welcome.
Nicola McFaull, President of the Onslow Residents Community Association (ORCA) said bringing together experts from the Wellington Regional Emergency Management Office, Red Cross, Urban Search and Rescue, NZ Police, Wellington Water, Survive-It, Emergency Radio and how to make a composting toilet provides a comprehensive picture of what people will need to know when the big one strikes.
“We have been told that when a large earthquake strikes, or an extreme weather event, the suburbs will have to fend for themselves for many weeks. We want to make sure our community is prepared and resilient so that all our residents can get through a disaster, including the most vulnerable people. This is one of ORCA’s goals.
“Our vision is for neighbours on every street to know each other and everyone is prepared for an emergency”.
Nicola said this is a free event. We encourage people to register to attend through eventbrite to ensure your seat and to go into the draw to win an emergency preparedness kit, register at

Celebrating Women's Suffrage Day 2019
We are holding a special 'Connecting to Collections' presentation in September to mark Women’s Suffrage Day 2019.
The He Tohu exhibition displays several constitutional documents from Archives New Zealand’s holdings, including the Women’s Suffrage Petition — but unlike the others, the Petition scroll is moved on regularly to show new signatures. Anna Whitehead explains the preservation reasons why this is the case, and Stef Lash uncovers some insights into the newly-revealed signatories on display.
Conservation Clinic
Following Anna and Stef's talk there will be an opportunity to get preservation advice on the care, handling and storage of your treasured family items from Field Conservator Vicki-Anne Heikell. Please note that conservators are not able to provide valuations.
About the speakers
Anna works at Archives New Zealand as a conservator, her specialisms are book and paper conservation. Her role is to preserve the Nation’s documentary heritage material and her most exciting role to date in New Zealand is as Archives NZ’s lead conservator for the He Tohu exhibition.
Stefanie Lash, Principal Advisor Strategy and Planning at Archives NZ, was the Lead Curator of He Tohu, and has a special interest in the social history behind the enfranchisement of New Zealand women.
Vicki-Anne Heikell is a Field Conservator at that National Library. Vicki-Anne works on paper (fine art, manuscripts and archives, ephemera); working with Maori community groups, iwi, hapu, whanau, developing strategies for care of paper-based collections; workshops on collections care for Maori organisations, iwi, hapu and whanau

We have been made aware of a video on social media of Titahi Bay beach with comments of suspected wastewater pollution/sewage.
We can confirm there has been no discharge or overflow event from the Porirua Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The video shows seaweed and sea foam, which is common following heavy winds.
We will be conducting tests in the area for reassurance, and will provide an update when these results have been received.
