Porirua's first social supermarket, Te Umu ki Rangituhi provides access to essential groceries. Whānau who access Te Rūnanga o Toa Rangatira social services will be supported to access the supermarket, and be able to select the groceries that best meet the needs of them and their whānau.
Ngā Hau e Whā o Paparārangi is an urban marae based in Newlands. The centre is used for a variety of community events including kapa haka, and for activities related to the society's planting project. It is a local papakāinga that has a 20yr restoration project of the surrounding native bush which includes arts such as Raranga (weaving), Rongoā (Maori medicine) and Maara kai (Maori food).
Maraeroa Marae Health Clinic provides opportunities so that whānau can thrive within our Porirua community, to participate and enjoy tikanga Māori, while having their health and social needs met or exceeded.
At Land Information Trust, our mission is to educate New Zealand youth about the important of Maori land succession rights through interactive and immersive visual arts, with the new history curriculum.
