Pickup and Plant at Pareawa Banks Avenue School Entrance June

Jun 27, 2026 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Last week we partnered with Avon-Ōtākaro Network to plant and tidy this school entryway for Pareawa Banks Ave School!

Thank you to the students, families, and local volunteers for making it happen. We’ll be hosting more events as this path is HUGE and needs lots of TLC. Want to help out? Get in touch with us. Click here to learn more.
