If you’ve popped over to Mt Cook recently you might have spotted Wellington Water hard at work on the Omāroro Reservoir Pipelines Project.

The new 35 million litre Omāroro reservoir will more than double the city’s water storage supply to meet the demands of an increasing population in the inner city, as well as making sure we have enough water in the event of a disaster or disruption.

To enable this work to be done there will be stop/go system in place along sections of Wallace Street from 24-26 July between 9am-4pm to protect workers and the public while they upgrade local pipes. Please avoid the area if at all possible during these hours.

Safe, supervised pedestrian access will be maintained while stop/go is in place.

Wellington Water / Fulton Hogan open new depot in Rongotai.

Chris from Hataitai

This marks the beginning of a new alliance partnership and a new era in efficient repair and maintenance of the city's water, stormwater and drainage infrastructure. Fulton Hogan have had to contend with a backlog of work as they took on the new contract, and there has been a small spike in leaks requiring repair, but this new team is already making headway into that backlog.

There's an old proverb: "Where there is water there is life."
But it's also true that: "Where there are leaks there are complaints!" Hopefully Wellingtonians will now get more water where they want it and less where they don't.

Want to learn more Te Reo Maori? Love board games? Want to get the kids off electronic devices and interacting with the family or with their friends?

Well, WERO MAI is a MAORI BOARD GAME for beginner Te Reo Maori Learners.

Wero Mai is a Young Enterprise business that has created a Maori board game to educate kiwis on Maori language and culture. The game is an interactive tool that allows for beginner Te Reo Maori learners to learn basic vocabulary in a fun social way. Only 3.7% of kiwis speak fluent Te Reo Maori and Wero Mai values kaitiakitanga and wants the language to be sustained as it is one of New Zealand’s three official languages.

Wero Mai is a bilingual flashcard game that can be played individually or in teams. The game covers a range of topics such as months, days, numbers, wildlife, Maori culture and NZ places. The game is filled with challenges like our Taniwha, which maximises learning and involvement from all players! The question based game brings families and friends together, off electronic devices and allows for players to learn more about Maori language and culture.

For more information, click on Wero Mai’s website where you can also order the game (delivery available). weromaiwegc.wixsite.com...

Kmart's list of 31 recalls

Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.

The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?
