Te Oraka Community Pools Co-Hosted Cleanup 1

Volunteers from Shirley Community Trust, We are Richmond and Dallington had their first cleanup session at Te Oraka Community Pools.
These former Te Oraka Shirley Intermediate pools haven’t been used in the last few years and were potentially going to be closed. The Te Oraka Community Pools Committee was set up by members from local organisations and residents last year to work together for a solution to keep these pools as a community asset for all members to use, not just students.
This was the first cleanup session and so much was accomplished!
WE ARE RICHMOND
Petrie Park Community BBQ & Engagement Session
The Richmond community gathered at a bbq at Petrie Park to spend time together but also engage on what they would like to see on the former bowling green at the southern half of the park.
Safe Speed Neighbourhoods Submission
The implementation of the new speed limits would fit well with the current traffic improvement initiatives in Richmond.
Planting for the Future
Over 360 Pareawa Banks Avenue students and local organisations come together to plant trees for the future.
