Tawa Rotary’s annual book fair gets under way this weekend and the club has added an extra weekend to the event this year.
Book fair coordinator, Pat Waite, says that it’s an extremely popular feature on the Tawa calendar and each year a significant amount of money is raised for local charitable purposes.
“The book fair is made possible by the generosity of not only Tawa residents but also others across Wellington and Porirua in donating their surplus books,” said Waite. “Many use the fair to stock up on their year’s reading and then donate the books back for the next fair.”
This year the book fair is being held at the Beanstalk Kindergarten premises in Duncan Street, opposite Tawa College.

Naomi Shaw is the sort of person that every sporting club loves. Shaw has played, administered and coached Saints Softball Club in the Hutt Valley for more than 55 years.
She played for the New Zealand women's White Sox softball team and is the only female captain to win a World Championship medal (1982).
An assistant coach at three world championships and head coach at a further three, she helped the White Sox achieve a world ranking of eight.
Shaw is perhaps best known as a stalwart of Hutt Valley and community sport. She has coached the Junior White Sox team and led the Hutt Valley Women's National League team to five successive titles and the Hutt Valley U19 and U18 teams to three successive titles.
Prominent in the success of the Hutt Valley Sports Awards, she was inducted as a Legend in 2013.
The Shaw clan have continued her legacy with daughter, Kiri, and grand-daughter Denva, both playing for the White Sox.
Grandson Sage Shaw-Tait
is highly regarded in rugby, baseball, softball and sevens.
Can you think of anyone in your community who has done more for sport?

An all-women powerhouse cast and crew come together from across Aotearoa for the NZ premiere of West End smash-hit Di and Viv and Rose.

A sharp, relatable story about three women across three decades, growing together and drifting apart through the big events and little moments in life. Intelligently written with political retrospect, emotional dramatic shifts and plenty of antics – all set to an iconic 80’s soundtrack.

A gorgeous and affecting mix of nostalgia with gut-punching honesty.

“Crackling with wisdom and wit, Di and Viv and Rose is a humorous and thoughtful exploration of friendship's impact on life and life's impact on friendship.” – London Theatre 1
