"Meet the Candidates" evening at Aro Valley Community Centre!

The Team from Aro Valley Community Centre

Don't miss out on the iconic Aro Valley Community Council "Meet the Candidates" evening.

The election cycle has gotten VERY interesting and this is an evening you don't want to miss - Get answers from local electorate candidates on the questions that are important to you!

The doors will be open from 7:00pm.

The event is a great chance to meet the Wellington Central candidates. Each candidate will be given some time to speak and then it's from the floor question time.

In true Aro Valley, style water pistols are part of the action for those candidates who can't stick to their time limit. Let's hope the candidates remember their waterproofs!

Representing Wellington Central we have:
- James Shaw - Green Party
- Abe Gray - The Opportunities Party
- Nicola Willis - National Party
- Grant Robertson - NZ Labour Party

NB: More candidates to be added pending confirmation

For more details contact us at the Aro Valley Community Centre at: developer@arovalley.org.nz

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).

Where possible, do you think employees should be able to work from home? Vote below and share your thoughts in the comments.

Central city

Ruth from Aro Valley

Was amused to see in the daily that an inner-city resident thought a Central Park would be good to have in Wellington. Not sure how wise it is to advertise its existence as I do appreciate its peace as opposed to the Botanical Gardens, but yes, we do have a large mature park by that name which is accessible by a shortish walk up Willis Street and onto Brooklyn Hill.
