Our Village, home of the Paremata Residents Association, contains the suburbs of Papakowhai, Paremata (including Mana), and part of Camborne.

The Village is one of eleven communities of suburbs within the city of Porirua, created by the Porirua City Council in its Village Planning Programme, an award-winning partnership between the Porirua City Council and its suburban communities.

The Programme puts communities in charge of developing a vision for their neighbourhoods and then partnering with Council to make it happen. This vision is brought together through community consultation and developed into Village Plans, which lay out the communities’ goals and aspirations for the future of their ‘villages’.
