Tawa Comes Together for Peace
Tawa Comes Together for Peace: Opening of the Tawa Peace Labyrinth
In a time when peace feels more precious than ever, the Tawa community is creating space for reflection, connection, and hope.
Join us on Sunday, 13 July at 10am in Coronation Park for the official opening of the Tawa Peace Labyrinth — a meaningful new feature built by Rotary Tawa to mark 50 years of service to our community.
The labyrinth, designed by Tawa College student Alastair Binns, is a symbol of life’s journey — with its twists and turns reminding us that even in uncertainty, there is always a way forward.
As part of Rotary’s global commitment to peacebuilding, this labyrinth reflects our belief that peace begins at home — in our neighbourhoods, our schools, and our shared spaces.
We invite you to come, explore, and reflect. Let this be a moment for Tawa to stand together — for peace, for understanding, and for a stronger, more connected community.
Coronation Park, Tawa
Sunday, 13 July
10:00 AM - 11.00 AM
Peace starts here — with us.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
58.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15% ... It is complicated
