COMMUNITY OPEN DAY

Mahara Gallery from

Mahara Gallery is moving offsite while the building undergoes a much-needed redevelopment.

We're holding a Community Open Day, Saturday 30 October, 10am till 1pm to farewell the old building and celebrate our exciting future.

Come along to learn about the gallery's history, its upgrade and our interim plans.

You'll be able to help make the final artwork in the gallery, which will be created by you sharing your memories of Mahara.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Rain: We largely missed out again

Murray from Paraparaumu

The sun's out so I guess the 'storm' has passed. Unfortunately the little rain amounting to a mere 13mm around midnight won't do much for the drought conditions in Kapiti. Around 100mm would have been nice.

It's approaching 40 days since we had anything substantial. Perhaps there is more to come from the present event.
