    • Wellington Bike Swap
      • Love hanging out with your friends and piles of vintage bike parts? Then you would have loved the 2024 Wellington Bike Swap! While it rained outside the Tararua Tramping Club served as the perfect space for the local bike community to come together and buy, sell and swap their old bike parts. Whether you were looking for a particular component or just keen to add to your ever-growing parts bin there was something for everyone. Carbon cranks jostled for space with moto-x handlebars and vintage derailleurs creating a overwhelming but somehow cohesive jumble of colours and textures.

    • Lunchtime Readings
      • Every second Tuesday lunchtime, Christina Barton, Director of the Adam Art Gallery and co-curator of In Relation: Performance Works by Peter Roche & Linda Buis 1979–1985, will select a performance in the exhibition and read the relevant original notes drafted by the artists or compiled by their most assiduous audience member, the critic and curator Wystan Curnow. Her idea is to bring a live dimension into the gallery as a way of animating the documentation on display and sharing first-hand insights in their unedited form. Each reading will be between 10 and 20 minutes with time for questions after.

      • E huri tō aroaro ki te rā, tukunme tō ataarangi ki muri i a koe In a heartwarming display of creativity, community spirit, and resourcefulness, the Wellington Women's House recently unveiled a mural that serves as a vibrant symbol of transformation, hope, endurance, and aroha. What began as a discarded piece of plywood in the backyard transformed into a remarkable work of art through a collaborative effort between the house's staff and residents. This unique project unfolded over the months of April and May, leaving an indelible mark on the Wellington Women's House and its community.

    • Weekly Club Roundup - Saturday 23rd June 2012
      • 1, 2, 3! Good wins for our Premiers, Senior 1st and Senior 2nds on Saturday saw Upper Hutt and Avalon head home wondering what hit them! Avalon accused our S2nds of fielding too many players – we are struggling for numbers so too many players are impossible! Our Women’s team returned from Stokes Valley with a narrow loss while both our Colts and Reserve team came second against Avalon and Upper Hutt respectively. Netball was 2-1 with Ories Gold continuing on their winning ways. They have been promoted up a grade and with Epi Lima in devastating form won by over 30 goals!

    • Palmerston North's Year of Faith Mass
      • Palmerston North Cecily McNeill September 2013 Imagination is key to growth in the diocese and to people becoming what God wants us to be, Bishop Charles Drennan told the more than 2,000 people gathered for a Year of Faith Mass in Palmerston North’s Pascal St Stadium on 4 August. ‘Satisfaction with stagnation is a death wish; the opposite of love… [but] if we pray, if we hope, if we expect, if we work and if we shepherd for growth it will come. And by growth I mean a deepening of our faith and also, today, I want to say let’s grow in numbers, too.’ The imagination, he said, leads us into the reality of how God wants us to be. ‘Imagination releases our creativity, liberates us from bureaucracy and sameness, transforms obstacles into challenges, lethargy into energy, laziness into passion, and allows us to experience afresh, through the sometimes worn out symptoms of Christianity, the living reality of God himself.’ We were people of hope, he said. ‘The Spirit was God’s imagination at work which she experiences as play, crafting his world, carving us, reworking us, into characters ready to play out a new page of God’s unfolding story for our world.’ Visiting in the diocese, Bishop Charles said he met people who dared ‘to imagine new outcomes, to embrace new initiatives, to imagine an even deeper faith, shaping every aspect of their person, their life’. Turning to the 50 candidates for Confirmation, he read a letter from one explaining their wish for the sacrament. ‘…to announce myself in front of my Catholic Community is something I am proud to do for it is part of my hikoi tapu – sacred journey – to God. I have always enjoyed seeing and participating in the Eucharist because of the unity I sense when everyone partakes of the body and blood of Hehu Karaiti. With his own body and blood he forgives me and draws me closer to himself, and to his teachings. I am in my final year at College. I am now ready. It is fitting that I be confirmed so that I establish myself as an adult in my religion of Catholicism katorikatanga. ‘Confirmation candidates, today the Holy Spirit comes to you bearing seven extraordinary gifts that will shape you for the rest of your life: wisdom, understanding, right judgement, courage, knowledge, reverence, and awe. These gifts are not skills or talents or achievements. They are extraordinary because they are nothing less than God’s own life, God’s way of being, placed by the Holy Spirit in you. ‘And those seven divine gifts once opened and lived, grow within us into what we call the 12 fruits of the Holy Spirit: charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control and chastity. Shaped by these gifts and fruits you will become the true you, the real you, the you of your soaring imagination, your highest aspirations, your greatest dreams. ‘With your sponsors and whanau we all say thank you for your courage to step up and embrace our shared life of faith. ‘Inspired by today’s great liturgy, great sacrament and great festival of faith may we all be deepened in our faith, and experience more joyfully the great workings of God within us. ‘Accompanied by our forebears in faith and all the Saints may we bring hope and renewed purpose to our family members, our schools and our communities both Church and civic of Manawatu and Tararua.’

    • Farewell Pānui Te Motu Kairangi
      • After careful consideration, the team behind Pānui Te Motu Kairangi – the Miramar Peninsula Newsletter – has decided to end on a high note, announcing that the lucky 13th edition, published in Spring this year, will be the last. Since its first edition in December 2020, around 50,000 copies of this printed community newsletter have been hand-delivered to peninsula letterboxes. Pānui shared local events and stories and reflected the diversity of the Miramar, Seatoun and Strathmore Park communities. Pānui was a collaboration between the Miramar and Maupuia Community Centre, Seatoun Village Hall and Strathmore Park Community Centres. The publication team was committed to Pānui remaining largely advertisement-free and says that the decision not to continue it was due to the ongoing pressures to fund it.

    • Lets Get Wellington Leaking
      • We’ve been waiting for years for this and although it is not yet official, at long last we are seeing some progress. This was a scoop leaked by the Dom Post – and I’m keen to know more, so I’m posting it up here. While I’m sure that LGWM have gone through millions of alternatives, and fully evaluated tham and argued endlessly over them, for the last several years, this is the first time we’ve seen anything concrete.
