Te Rā o Waitangi | Waitangi Day
12pm-6pm, Waitangi Park, Wellington
"Te Rā o Waitangi is a free, whānau-friendly event, to commemorate the signing of Te Tiriti o Waitangi (The Treaty of Waitangi) and Aotearoa New Zealand’s national day. It's about coming together to celebrate our country and to acknowledge our treaty obligations and partnerships."

Exhibition Whai Wāhi, on to 29 March 2026
"Whai Wāhi emerges as a contribution to contemporary discourse around Te Tiriti o Waitangi – which remains a primary reference for artists, among others, in the negotiation of identity and relationships here in Aotearoa – and ideas extending from this. In this full-gallery, intergenerational exhibition, artworks from the 1970s to the present articulate expressions of mana motuhake, dissent, and an enduring will to engage in critical dialogue about our shared colonial past."
Do I have any moots who work at #Catalyst (or Catalyst Cloud) in #Pōneke?
Or does anyone have any recommendations for self-hosting providers in #Aotearoa (for Not For Profit organisations without much money to wave around) - for a #WordPress and #Moodle stack?

#Pōneke, it's German Fair this Saturday at the Wellington Bridge Club from 11am to 2pm.
There's German books and toys on offer that are usually hard to get here.
You may be subjected to the odd Lederhosen and Dirndl 😱 but don't despair, there's German cakes and sausages to recover from the shock. 😉
Koha entry at the door.
