    • BNU 4 Upper Hutt City 0
      • When the squad assembled at fortress Wakefield it was as if someone had sent out ???reunion??? invitations with Burnsy returning from his self imposed exile and Babysham back among the playing staff after a night at the ballet. The squad had some depth and a ???solid??? look about it, and it was soon apparent that if our football was anywhere near as good as our pre-match changing room banter then the Hutt rabble were in for one hell of a beating!

    • Bumper year for records in store
      • If the recent SW Short Course champs is anything to go by, 2007/08 looks set to be a bumper year for local and national records set by Wellington swimmers. 28 local and 4 national records were broken at the meet, beating the 27 local and one national record set in 2005/06. Wellington swimmers are well on track to surpass the 59 SW and 8 SNZ records broken in 05/06 and we still have 7 months to go!

    • Success in Australia
      • All the hard work paid off for the band when they won the Australian B-Grade on Easter Sunday, 23 March. The Australian national contest was held in Brisbane this year and Pelorus Trust Wellington Brass was one of only two NZ bands, with Dalewool, to make the trip across the Tasman. The band won the Hymn, Own Choice and Test sections and came second in the Stage March, producing an aggregate well clear of the second-placed band. read more

    • Thank god that's over
      • I can't claim to speak for all the Wellingtonista, but I have to say it: Sevens weekend is horrible. There's a lot of gushy talk in the main media outlets about how colourful and vibrant and alive the city becomes, but one could say the same about a nasty fungal rash. Many of us who live in the central city can attest to how colourful and vibrant and alive the city is most of the time, and in an a

    • Willis Street complete? Not, actually
      • "Willis Street complete" is one of the headlines in the Wellington City Council’s effusive display advertisement in the DomPost today. But the headline isn’t accurate. Only part of the job has been completed. Though it’s true that “the paving is complete” on this part of the new bus route, the council doesn’t mention that another stage of the project is yet to begin – on Thursday, linesmen will start the complicated task of rearranging the network of overhead wires for trolley buses.

    • Gerry Brownlee – please cancel Transmission Gully
      • There is a road proposal, with a cost to benefit ratio that flies out the window, for a road that goes up an earthquake fault line, is steeper for longer than Ngauranga Gorge, and is going to cost over a billion $$, which neither central nor local government has the money to finance. On a list of projects that need to be cancelled to pay for the rebuilding of Christchurch, I’d put this one right at the very top. Wouldn’t you?

    • Willis Street: “flawed and dangerous”
      • “Flawed and dangerous.” After two expensive council makeovers of Willis Street within the last three years, we’ve been given an official verdict on the failure of the re-design. The “flawed and dangerous” verdict on Willis Street is an authoritative one. It comes from deputy mayor Ian McKinnon, quoted in the print edition of the DomPost on Saturday morning after retailers had taken action against the barriers which were a last-ditch attempt by the council to stop pedestrians being hit by buses.

    • Wellington’s Huge Commuter Tide
      • Wellington is an unusual city due to a huge portion of jobs being in the CBD We experience serious “tidal” congestion due to the huge morning inflow of commuters into the CBD and then out from CBD in the evening The peak time pressure on the Golden Mile is huge but otherwise Wellington is quite an accessible city One could rightly say that every city is different but, on the spectrum of city characteristics, Wellington City is unusual in a number of ways.… Read more ...

    • Killing Kāinga Ora
      • The Luxon-led government continues its attack on anything that the Labour Party ever managed to do, with the release of news about the Kāinga Ora housing projects. Most of them, it seems, have been killed off. “Brakes put on more than 370 Kāinga Ora housing developments nationally”. In Wellington the following projects are stopped: Arlington redevelopment and Evans Bay Parade, with other projects stopped in the Hutt, Naenae, Wainuiomata, and Porirua. The list says “paused.” But I know a dead duck when I see one.

      • A timely and interesting post from the WCC, showing a list of relevant accommodation providers, that may or may not have issues similar to the Loafer’s Lodge, which, as we all know, tragically burnt down and killed people. No one wants a repeat of that sordid mess, and so the great thing is that the WCC are being pro-active and trying to get ahead of the game here. Here’s a link to Scoop’s post – curiously I have not seen it on Stuff Post yet.

    • 42m is TOO Tall
      • While there is a need for good commentary on the Draft District Plan, expecting us ordinary citizens to go about our everyday jobs and still have the coherence to comment authoritatively on several hundred pages of new District Plan is asking a little too much of this particular Fish and their day job. So unless I get particularly creative and energetic over the next weekend, I think that on the whole the DP is going to go uncommented on. With the exception of just one area: Height.

    • Take two: spotlight goes on solving problems through drama
      • Dramatic enactment of significant life situations can help people work through issues as diverse as drug taking, cancer recovery, sexual abuse, adoption, or death of a loved one—and the casting call is out for Wellingtonians. A special weekend workshop using psychodrama is to be held 4-6 May in Alpha Street’s The Training Space. “Putting yourself centre stage in a safe and understanding space helps people to strengthen their sense of self, their relationships and their effectiveness within a group,” says workshop leader, John Faisandier.

    • In the Museum of Curious Intent
      • When Arlo Edwards approached an art dealer with his work at the age of eighteen, the dealer told him to "come back in 10 years, and then maybe we’ll look at your work". Not content with such a response, Arlo embarked on a somewhat unorthodox curatorial career, and has been putting on exhibitions when and wherever he could for more than a decade. Toi Pōneke Gallery is the next venue for one of his projects, an exhibition of work by 10 local established and emerging artists.

    • Mana College v. Wellington College
      • f you're stuck for something to do next Monday night, you could do worse than to head to Porirua Park for the final of Wellington's premier one grade schoolboy rugby competition. The match is to be played between Mana College and Wellington College. As detailed in a story in the Dom Post, Mana has made a dramatic rise through the grades after starting the year in premier two and being promoted mid-season, and to have made it to the final is nigh-on miraculous.

    • Parking Review 2009
      • WCC are reviewing the Residents Parking and Coupon Parking schemes in inner city suburbs, including Mt Cook. According to Wellington City Council, Mt Cook has 1248 households with an average of one car per household. There are 644 off-street parks, leaving 604 car owners to park in the 938 Residents or Coupon parks. In Mt Cook there are 726 residents or coupon excemption permits currently issued. On the face of it, all this seems fine. Are you having trouble parking in your street?

    • Primo Surpremo: architectural justice?
      • Opened this week with princely aplomb, the symbol of New Zealand’s self-sufficient justice system, ironically begins its life with Royal approval. The local architectural opinions though have not been so benevolent towards this Primo Supremo architecture … but - as I heard from one friend the other day - WaM are big enough and ugly enough to take a bit of criticism … so let’s start with the crowning glory of the building - that hulking bit of welded bronze trying hard - but not succeeding - to be a pohutakawa-ish screen.

You may well be wondering, "what the hell is all of this in aid of?" Well gentle reader, today for one day only, the area around the lagoon and Frank Kitts Park is being transformed into a slice of Asia (well about 10 or so slices of Asia) for the Southeast Asian Night Market.

    • Record Numbers Strip Foodbank Bare
      • Food supplies at Downtown Community Ministry’s Foodbank are struggling to cope with the record number of people seeking assistance. Over 40 people received food parcels on Monday in one of the busiest afternoons the Foodbank has known. At 1:30pm when the Foodbank opened 20 people were waiting to be interviewed for food assistance. “Despite generous support for the Foodbank this year, our shelves are once again empty with demand totally exceeding supply,” says DCM Director Stephanie McIntyre. More food is desperately needed to meet the demand.

    • Vote no for both flyover options
      • One week of the eight-week consultation period is already over – leaving less than seven weeks to tell the Transport Agency what we think of their flyovers and their other roading plans. The best suggestion so far has come from Maximus on Eye of the Fish, who recommends that everyone sends a submission saying: I vote for neither of the two options presented. I demand to see a full and fair evaluation of all the other schemes that you have had for the last 2-3 years.

    • ORCHESTRA WELLINGTON presents FIREBIRDSATURDAY 13 MAY, 2017,...
      • ORCHESTRA WELLINGTON presents FIREBIRD SATURDAY 13 MAY, 2017, 7:30PM MICHAEL FOWLER CENTRE, WELLINGTON Ludwig van Beethoven Symphony No 1 in C Major — John Elmsly Violin Concerto (Orchestra Wellington Composer in Residence) — Igor Stravinsky The Firebird (Complete Ballet Score) — Marc Taddei, Conductor Jun Hong Loh, Violin (Grand Prize Winner, Gisborne International Music Competition 2015) Orchestra Wellington opens its concert season with two works that welcome the arrival of  young genius upon the world stage. Stravinsky had barely finished his studies when the great impresario of the Ballets Russes, Diaghilev, recognised his talent and commissioned the work that would make him world famous: the Firebird. Music Director Marc Taddei calls the Firebird a fantastically imaginative blend. “Stravinsky takes the folk music of Russia and mixes it with the exotic orchestration of his teacher, Rimsky Korsakov, and the harmonic language of the great Impressionists. If one score deserves to be called ‘magical’, it’s this one. It’s a masterpiece!” Taddei says he is thrilled to present the music for the full ballet. “Normally in a concert performance, the Firebird is heard in shortened suites,” Taddei says. “The full score is rarely heard, and it is a revelation,” he says. Taddei decided to pair the Firebird with Beethoven’s First Symphony. “I like the idea of hearing how two young geniuses announced their voice to the world,” he says. The First Symphony shows Beethoven’s mastery of the symphonic form developed by his teacher Haydn, and then takes a confident step beyond that into the musical territory that he would one day revolutionise. To complete the programme, the Orchestra presents the world premiere performance of one of New Zealand’s great senior composers - John Elmsly. Elmsly’s Violin Concerto will feature the Singaporean violinist Jun Hong Loh, winner of the 2015 Gisborne International Music Competition. Taddei calls 2017, “the season of the Impresario”, highlighting the link between the visionary founder of the Ballets Russes and the major body of works created at his behest: works that will be a major focus of the Orchestra’s performances this year. “This year begins with the promise of extraordinary innovation and genius - a promise that will be fully realised throughout the season.” Photography: Jon Trimmer and Judith Mohekey in The Firebird, 1973 Courtesy of the Royal New Zealand Ballet.

    • pre-season local derby this Saturday morning at Wakefield Park 9:30am
      • <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Come down to support the IBU Shark's first team in their second pre-season game of 2020 this time against Wellington United from the Capital Premier League. This game is a particularly special one as it features Leonardo Villa, who most of you will know simply as Leo, playing for the opposition.  Leo is our head junior coach and is often seen around Wakefield nurturing our 5-15 year old junior and youth players.  For the junior players out there, one of the absolute treats of having Leo around is being able to witness him playing the “beautiful game”. You are unlikely to see a player in our local competitions like Leo, having played to the heights of Serie B in the Italian league over several seasons.  To see Leo gliding about the field directing, intervening and playing defence splitting passes is to see the work of a master.  His feline presence on the field is truly the embodiment of Argentina’s famed Puma, prowling the midfield!   Good luck Leo, but not too much - the Sharks are going to be here to play!

Fast-paced, fun, and friendly, these are the perfect events to rekindle your love of orienteering after a day at school or the office. Bring your enthusiasm (and maybe a friend or two!)—it’s all about getting outside and discovering familiar urban and local rural areas in a new way. So, run for your lives at our first sprint at Karori Cemetery this Wednesday. This is followed by sprints at Chilton St Bernards School in the Hutt Valley on Wednesday 18 February, and VUW Kelburn Campus on Wednesday 25 February. We’re also thrilled to continue our partnership with College Sport Wellington (CSW). This series is all about helping our younger members develop confidence, strategy, and a love for orienteering that lasts a lifetime. It’s always inspiring to see so many students giving it their all. Members’ League Jake Hanson has been developing a members’ league to add a bit of collegial competition to CSW and OY events for Orienteering Wellington members aged 16 or older (so as not to be confused with CSW rankings). The idea is that points are weighted to account for age and ability, rather than simply on fastest time. There was strong support for the league at the AGM, which we’ll introduce for this season. There will also be a way for people to opt out of the league if they prefer. Read the details on eligibility, which events qualify, and how points are calculated! Subscriptions By now you’ll have received an invoice for your annual subscription, so it’s time to renew your membership. If you haven’t received your invoice or have a query about your membership, then email Anna Varnham at membership@wellingtonorienteering.org.nz. Look swish! It’s the start of the season so now’s the perfect time to get some club gear. Plus, you can do your bit to look club-proud and awesome at Nationals! Get your gear! Technical tip: Visualise the circle When you look to the next control, how well can you picture exactly what your approach will look like? To know precisely where the control will be placed you need to convert the map into an image in your mind of how the terrain in the control circle will look. Watch the video about developing a clear mental image of stepping stones and handrails, how they relate to each other and how you will flow through them. You should flow though control sites just as you flow through the rest of the leg. Content provided by Orienteering New Zealand Club biz A strong showing of 23 members (about one-quarter of members) attended the Annual General Meeting on 6 December 2025, with a further six apologies noted. Beverley Holder was returned as president, likewise Gerald Crawford as treasurer. Lachlan McKenzie, Jake Hanson and Paul Teesdale-Spittle were also returned to the committee, with Lachlan retaining the role of secretary. Any member can attend a Committee meeting and submit items for discussion. Committee meetings are on the second Sunday of each month from February through to November. The Committee has notionally nominated Saturday, 21 November 2026 for this year’s AGM. Find meeting dates. We’re interested to hear from you as to how you might like to be involved with the club and if you’re keen to support a working group—see the discussion paper. Not all working groups need to be permanent. One suggestion from members who attended AGM 2025 was the need for a focus on training, which was widely supported by all in attendance.
