Tickets start from $30, and the two shows will take place at 2.30pm & 7:30pm on February 27 2021 at the Michael Fowler Centre.

During 2020 they took part in a military camp at Waiouru with over 1000 other cadets from across New Zealand. Over the course of a week they got to take part in abseiling, mountain biking, sailing, archery, flying, camping and a myriad of other activities.
A number of the cadets went to RNZAF Ohakea to complete training courses and again Porirua won the top student for central district on the junior NCO course.
The unit has been recognised by the Duke of Edinburgh award and is now a registered award facilitator allowing our young people to complete the award through the year.
The Duke of Edinburgh award is recognised in over 170 countries it also allows participants to gain extra NCEA credits.
The unit has grown over the course of the year and also gained a new unit commander and a number of new officers.
They will be having an open night on the January 27 at the Cadet buildings in Ngati Toa Domain. 6B Pascoe Avenue Paremata.
Hi everyone,
With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why?

With Christmas fast approaching, we'd be keen to hear from those who spend the festive season (or part of it) away each year. Where do you go and why? What makes it such a great place to be at this time of year? What are you most looking forward to about the trip? Any words of advice you may have on things to do or places to eat or drink in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please put 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.

The Plimmerton Flood Action Group has formed after a torrential downpour, combined with a mid-morning king tide, left 16 homes uninhabitable among 60 properties damaged by floodwaters on November 29.
The group presented a five-point action plan to Porirua City Council on Wednesday, however council chief executive Wendy Walker conceded “not all of [the group's requests] were possible”.

Leigh Corner gave us his Viewpoint tonight. He asked, 'Why am I concerned with the decrease in biodiversity, not just in New Zealand but globally?'

He asked, 'Why am I concerned with the decrease in biodiversity, not just in New Zealand but globally?' He then went on to explain that we are dependent on the biosphere, that is, all living things on earth, for our air, clean water, and the food we eat. There is a great diversity of species in the biosphere and they are found in a myriad of ecosystems. The stability of the biosphere and these ecosystems is contingent on the complexity that results from diversity. The greater the biodiversity, the healthier and more stable are the ecosystems. If there is a sudden change in the environment of the communities, the stability may change and the community may be destroyed.

The Committee has developed a relationship with KMart who have very generously supported this project. Rangikura has agreed to store surplus clothing until it is needed. The kids at the Kindy spent many hours producing a beautiful card to present to Donna and her team.
