Paremata School has been closed until further notice after sewage flooded into the playground, a staff member said.
The flooding had subsided and the rain had eased by about 10.30am, but the school remains closed to pupils as the toilets aren’t working.
Wellington Water, council and Downer crews were out this morning in Plimmerton, Titahi Bay, Elsdon, Cannons Creek and Whitby, a Porirua City Council spokesman said.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options.

The first meeting to be streamed, will feature the Council’s main committee, Te Puna Kōrero. During the Covid-19 lockdown, the Council streamed two meetings and decided to look into making this permanent. Porirua Mayor Anita Baker says this tool of engagement has been investigated before and now the time is right, as many in our community have requested the ability to hear and see what elected members are talking about without being there in person. It involved upgrading technology in the Council chamber, with a camera to track whomever is speaking, along with high-quality microphones in front of each person.
The 10 December Te Puna Kōrero meeting starts at 8.30am. Go to the meetings page on our website and click ‘watch now’ to go through to the YouTube page

Now that summer's finally here and the holidays are just around the corner for many, we'd love to hear about your favourite summer holiday memories. Has there been a trip that you continue to think about years later? Where did you go, with who and what did you get up to? What made it such a stand-out experience? As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article. Cheers.

Enjoy the very best of locally-made crafts, artisan food, and refreshments in a lovely rural setting at the Eat Drink and Be Crafty Fair. There will also be a live band and plenty of entertainment for all ages – it’s sure to be a great family day out for everyone.
Cell phone coverage in the area of Battle Hill is patchy which in turn means coverage for Eftpos machines can be a problem. In the past, cash has proved to be the most reliable means for transactions. There will be a limited Eftpos facility on the day supplying cash.
The proceeds from the day will support Wellington Free Ambulance and local Porirua Community Charities.
Where: Greater Wellington’s Battle Hill Farm Forest Park, 608 Paekakariki Hill Road, Porirua, Wellington
Admission: Gold coin donation
