Community praise for Naenae Pool and Fitness Centre design

Hutt City Council

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.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
