New sea-themed murals on the entrances to the Rongotai subway
The new sea-themed murals on the entrances to the subway below the airport runway were blessed and celebrated this week. Senior art students from Rongotai College worked with Sheyne Tuffery Artist and Paul Tobin from Weta Workshop on the murals. The subway upgrade has included the installation of new security cameras and brighter, more energy efficient lighting. An electronic counter has also recently been installed, which will provide ongoing information on the numbers of people on foot and on bikes using this route. More info on our website.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
