Arena Aquatics back in action

Porirua City Council

Arena Aquatics is back in action following important maintenance work to ensure this popular facility can continue to be enjoyed by all.

Staff were excited to open the doors to the public again last week after three weeks which had the building full of contractors rather than swimmers.

Much of the maintenance work focused behind the scenes, in the pool plant and filtration areas. The public areas also received a refresh.

To celebrate Arena Aquatics’ reopening, we are inviting tamariki to enter a drawing competition, where they can draw themselves and their whānau enjoying a dip in the toddlers’ pool. There will be swim passes and other goodies up for grabs – keep an eye on the Council Facebook page for more details.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
