Embrace the Challenge - Wero Tiaki Wai
Tell us - Show us - Share with us

Cyclone Gabrielle damaged the main water pipe to the city, putting us in a water crisis. We all needed to save as much water as possible as the backup system couldn't produce as much water as Waingake.

It's a reminder of how sacred clean, drinkable water is.

We had to all work together to make an effort to keep our taps running.

To make it a bit more fun we're ran a competition.

Wero Tiaki Wai – Embrace the Challenge : Tell us your tips, show us your pics, share your stories

There were awesome prizes up for grabs!

First prize: $500 donation to a school or charity of your choice.
Runner up: $250 donation to a school or charity of your choice.

Tiakina te wai Gizzy! Look after our supply so it doesn't run dry!
