Cool as way to celebrate summer
It’s well and truly summer now, so a cool drink could be top of the list if you’re out and about.
For the second year, the Cool As Challenge will take place in Porirua, with each participating café creating their own unique drink that will be judged by a public vote.
Nineteen venues in Porirua will be taking part in the challenge from 16 February to 3 March, with more than 30 signature summer drinks will be available across Porirua and Lower Hutt. Our community is encouraged to get out and support local businesses that have created a unique thirst-quencher.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
