  • Water Restrictions begin – Level 1

    Water Restriction Level 1 Use sprinklers every second day If you live in an even numbered house, you can use sprinklers or irrigation systems on even numbered days between 6-8am and 7-9pm. If you live in an odd numbered house, the same rules apply for odd numbered days. This helps limit water evaporating in the heat of the day, spreads the load of daily water demand, and helps manage daily supply levels. You can use handheld watering devices any time, on any day, so long as you don’t leave them unattended. Water restriction Level 1 applies all year round for Upper Hutt and South Wairarapa.

    East Harbour Womens Club 145 Muritai Road, Eastbourne, Lower Hutt, Wellington, New Zealand

    The Society's next event for members is another author talking about another aspect of our history, and promises to be just as interesting and challenging. On Sunday 13 October at 2 pm at the East Harbour Women's Club Rooms in Muritai Road, local resident and bibliophile Rudi Mack will introduce us to his new book "First Contacts - the early Pacific and European accounts of Abel Tasman's 1642 Voyage".  Rudi takes a new approach, offering a different perspective than previous histories about the voyage. By cross-referencing textual and visual sources with each other, new interpretations of certain events during the voyage emerge. The results are
