Naenae’s new multi-million-dollar pool and fitness centre is shaping up to be just what the people ordered.

That’s the feedback from community and aquatic sports groups who have their seal of approval to the region’s newest swim centre design, praising it as “modern, spacious and airy”.

Other key features that drew praise for the design in the second Voice of the Community report includes the wider 50m pool, and a more user-friendly layout inside and out.

Construction is set to begin in the second half of this year. A Huringa Nuku blessing was held onsite on 17 June to prepare the site for construction to begin.

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Camilla

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"Hi everyone, My name is Camilla and as you can see, I am a very beautiful girl.

I love attention and cuddles and in addition to provide people with lots of love, I enjoy going for walks where I can show everybody how beautiful I actually am. My forever home would be a home where in the beginning someone would be by my side most of the time. Then I can get used to your routine and my new environment. I would benefit from continuing my basic training, which I've started at SPCA. I've done well so far with getting used to new people and new routine, but I need my new owner to continue the training with me, so I can become an even smarter doggo. I can be very shy with new people, particularly tall men or loud strangers. My new home would need to be a home with confident older kids or teenagers. My new owners will need to introduce me to new people slowly, as the world can be scary at times, and I haven't had too many people to trust in my previous life. A home with a confident, patient dog may work well for me. I enjoy playing with other social dogs. Unfortunately I am not suited to a home with cats/small animals."

Wastewater problems; then and today

Keith from Elderslea

Firstly I would like to compliment Councillor Helen Swailes for her transport piece in this weeks Upper Hutt Leader.
I feel that this government is pushing barrows on many fronts far too fast.

Firstly I would like to compliment Councillor Helen Swailes for her transport piece in this weeks Upper Hutt Leader.
I feel that this government is pushing barrows on many fronts far too fast.
In 2019 I sent an article that I had written relating to waste disposal and problems associated with it. It went with a covering letter to the appropriate ministers likely to be involved but apart from kind acknowledgments and that the enclosure had been sent to officials no more has been heard.
I have attached a copy with an addition at the end and ask you a question.
Do you flush paper, solids and fats down the sink or drain?
If so. Why? Lack of understanding about their possible implications. Couldn't care less. Easy option.
I would like to hear from you. Many thanks.
