Explore Street Art in Porirua City
We have beautiful street art across Porirua City and you can discover more of it with the inaugural Street Art Explorer activity which kicked off this month.
Running for all of October, 20 murals around the city have been included in a special explorer booklet for young and old to visit and learn more about the street art around Porirua.
There are questions to answer and a corresponding rubbing at each mural. Once you’ve collected three rubbings, you can take your booklet to Te Rauparaha Arena reception and be rewarded with a free Arena Aquatics child swim pass.
To participate, pick up the Street Art Explorer booklet and crayon from the Council front counter in Cobham Court, or any Porirua City Library.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Hi neighbours
The new Porirua Community Art and Craft market at Kai Tahi in Porirua is now running EVERY Sunday. It's all indoors, and there's over 30 stalls each week.
Opens at 10am and closes 3pm, so you can also grab lunch at the many international food court options. Bring the kids, and your dog on a lead is welcome too!
Parking at the back (on harbour edge) is free - just stay clear of the Staff Only parks.
