All recreation centres will be shutting at various times from 12pm, and all pools and ClubActive will be shut from 5pm. Our hardworking team have had a crazy few months and will be taking some well-deserved time to relax and celebrate the year that’s been.
All facilities will be open as usual on Monday morning and we look forward to seeing you. Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Neighbourly folk, have you spotted a kārearea lately? It is one of New Zealand's rarest birds but it is doing well in Wellington City.
If you have seen one, we would like to know where it was.
A growing number of people are visiting our cemeteries for recreation. In the Draft Cemeteries Management Plan, we’ve provided some clarification to ensure that recreational use is compatible with the needs of people visiting the graves of loved ones.

Cell phone coverage in the area of Battle Hill is patchy which in turn means coverage for Eftpos machines can be a problem. In the past, cash has proved to be the most reliable means for transactions. There will be a limited Eftpos facility on the day supplying cash.
The proceeds from the day will support Wellington Free Ambulance and local Porirua Community Charities.
Where: Greater Wellington’s Battle Hill Farm Forest Park, 608 Paekakariki Hill Road, Porirua, Wellington
Admission: Gold coin donation

Donors donate a percentage of their income to the Collective, which distributes it to charities.
Charities it supports include including Garden to Table, Bellyful, Kaibosh, Upside Downs, DCM, Spinning Top, Take my Hands and Nga Rangitahi Toa.
One Percent Collective co-founder Pat Shepherd said he expected donations to decrease due to Covid but donations had instead increased.
The Out Goers (activities for ladies 45 plus) are now easily findable under "groups". Cheers.

When Clifford Hallett blows out the candles on his cake in a couple of weeks, he'll likely wish for an extra leave day to celebrate.
Hallett has launched a petition to Parliament requesting it pass legislation to give all employees that right.

"I am a special dude who has had an unusual start to my rehoming journey. I am completely deaf but that doesn't stop me having a great time! I am a fun, loveable, boy who has stolen the hearts of everyone at the centre. I am looking for an experienced owner, who has a suitable property for me to thrive in. I'm always up for a walk or a game to play, and I love to find things to do and keep active. I am looking for a home with teenagers or adults, and a home without cats or small animals. I am happy to play with other active dogs, and love to be social with both people and dogs. If you are interested in me and my goofy personality - chat to the canine team."

A post on the Lower Hutt Kereru Rescue page is a reminder of how cute or ugly, depending on your point of view, baby kereru are.
The little fellah was handed in to the Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust before being handed over the Welington Zoo.
