Almost every young woman dreams of dressing up to attend a school ball. It's a magical moment, but sadly it's an expensive affair and not all girls get the chance to attend.
This year - thanks ...

How does it work?
Red Cross Journey is all about walking in someone else’s shoes. Choose a journey to follow, clock 10,000 steps each day between 8 May and 8 June and get people to sponsor you.
Along the way, you’ll receive updates marking your milestones and sharing more about your chosen journey.
By taking part and fundraising, you’ll be helping Red Cross do good things across New Zealand and around the world.
Which journey will you take?
Choose to walk Disaster Welfare and Support Team volunteer Kath’s journey and cover 240km during the month – that’s about 10,000 steps a day – or get a team together and follow the Tamim family's route to a safer life, covering 1,000km.

No traffic will be able to exit Porowinin Ave on to Maunu Rd during the works, however traffic on Maunu Rd will be able to enter Porowini Ave as per normal. Porowinin Ave West will be accessible to light commercial vehicles and cars from the Tarewa Rd end only, they will need to exit again via the entry point e.g. Tarewa/Porowini intersection. Note: the route will not suit large truck and trailer units as there will be insufficient turning room to get them back out.
The work needs to be done before more damage occurs and a spill results, the contractor has made resources available and we wish to take advantage of the favourable weather over the next week. Sorry for the inconvenience and we thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
