It doesn’t matter which network you are on. Any capable phone in the target area during the broadcast period should receive the alert

Emergency Mobile Alerts are not meant to replace other emergency alerts, or the need to take action after natural warnings.

You still need to be prepared for an emergency and you should not wait to get an alert before you act. If you feel your life is in danger, don’t wait for an official warning. Take immediate action.

Wellington Water Suburb of the Week - Timberlea

The Team from Wellington Water

After a pretty hot week last week, some #waterlovers emerged from the suburb of Timberlea in Upper Hutt to take out the suburb of the week title.

After a pretty hot week last week, some #waterlovers emerged from the suburb of Timberlea in Upper Hutt to take out the suburb of the week title.

Keep up the good work Hutt Valley - two weeks running. Can a Wellington or Porirua suburb take out the win this week?

Our top #loveeverydrop water saving tip for the week is to group plants in your garden into high or low water users, you can then design a watering pattern that is better for your plants and one that will also reduce the amount of water wastage.

Miramar North School is a fabulous place filled with happy children who love learning and playing together, and amazing, supportive teachers. Our playground, on the other hand, needs a bit of TLC.

While our school's education practices continue to evolve, our playground has been left back in the '80s (which is apparently the 'olden days' according to our kids). It's time to give it some love and create an environment that inspires our kids to climb, challenge themselves, get fit, and have fun together in the outdoors.

The whole community is set to benefit from our Playground Upgrade but we need a bit of support to get the project off the ground.

UPDATE: Thanks to the support of our community we have bought our first piece of equipment but we still need help to fund its installation and ensure it's safe and sound for the kids to play on (e.g. paying for the wood chip that sits underneath the equipment, building the surrounding retainer for wood chip - this crucial part of the project is still very expensive even with discounts and we need to source around $3000). Every dollar (and cent) counts.
