Pauatahanui School Office —

Lots of cool holiday activities in here

Tena koe

We invite you to join us for a community event that’s all about making a positive impact on the Pauatahanui Inlet! The Rotary Club of Plimmerton, together with Ngāti Toa, Porirua City Council, and Greater Wellington Regional Council, is starting its five-year planting programme along the edges of the Inlet – and your help would make a difference.

Why we need you

The Pauatahanui Inlet is a beautiful and unique area, offering environmental, recreational, and scenic views. Planting native species along its edges will:

·      reduce erosion and sedimentation

·      create better habitats for native plants and animals

·      restore native plants to the foreshore and adjoining areas.

When and where?

·      Date: Sunday, 6 July 2025

·      Time: 10:00 AM for the welcome and briefing

·      Location: Eastern end of Motukaraka Point

What should you bring?

·      Comfortable shoes or boots that can get wet and handle some mud

·      A warm jacket and raincoat

·      A water bottle to stay hydrated, and hat and sunblock

·      Enthusiasm for the task!

We will provide tools, drinks, and snacks. We will kick off the planting with a welcome and briefing and finish with a sausage sizzle.

It would be great to see you – and it would be great if you can let us know you are coming by replying to brettjones55@gmail.com.
