A temporary wharf has been in place at Point Howard during the Seaview Wharf resilience project, but it will not be required after early 2026.
Centre Port tells us it will cost $800,000 to remove . What would the cost be for it to stay ?
Retaining the wharf offers several opportunities for Hutt City Council (HCC) and Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC):
Ferry: It could be a new stop for the East by West ferry for residents commuting to Wellington from Lowry Bay and Point Howard, many of whom could easily walk there (on the new shared path), rather than driving. This would alleviate parking pressure in Days Bay and reduce commuter traffic between Point Howard and Days Bay. I understand Seaview and Gracefield are poorly served by public transport, especially for workers who live in Wellington. A ferry route between Wellington and Point Howard could potentially carry commuters from Wellington to Seaview and Gracefield, especially if combined with a bus service. We are all aware of the tremendous potential for the Eastern Bays when the Tupua Horo Noku shared path is completed. An additional ferry stop will provide recreational cyclists and walkers with more options for enjoying Te Aranui o Pōneke Great Harbour Way.
New
Resilience: An additional wharf could be critical for the Eastern Bays if an earthquake cuts off the road, and also for Lower Hutt if the motorway is closed.
Fishing: Fishers have lost places to fish with the dismantling of the old Point Howard Wharf and the closure of the Petone Wharf.
Recreation: The beach at Point Howard is one of the most sheltered in the harbour for swimming, and a wharf there could enhance the recreation opportunities and offer an alternative to Days Bay, which is often overcrowded.
Where to now? There are of course many considerations, not least being the consent conditions for the wharf and potential costs to HCC and GWRC.
It would be helpful to have the conversations with interested parties before the wharf is removed. Contact the Eastbourne Community Board , or the Eastbourne Herald if you have an opinion or idea..
Karamu Coffee Expands
Nicola Morris
Eastbourne local Mike Pullin didn't hesitate to push "buy" when the opportunity arose to add the People's Coffee production business to his existing roastery Karamu Coffee,
Initially based at Point Howard, the roastery has now expanded into a Gracefield warehouse and employs 8 locals .
The decision to start roasting coffee came from a desire to control the end result : having coffee produced his way that kept his customers coming back for more.
Interestingly whilst Mike acknowledges the malaise impacting so many hospitality businesses he says people are still buying coffee. They are spending less overall, but still want a decent coffee as a treat.
Heading out on your beach walk? Eastbourne will soon have a new coffee stop for you.
You already know the team from ESSC Eats. Now they have identified a need to fuel those early morning walkers as well as the late morning strollers, runners needing to refuel and anyone else who just wants to stop, sit down and have a tasty snack and a coffee.
Saturday & Sunday 8am - 4pm &
Utilising existing space, Mark and Rebecca are putting the finishing touches on their new venture "Crust" . They will be opening in early November. Plans are to be open Thursday through to Sunday from 6.30am until 2 - but they will be responding to demand. In addition to hot drinks there will be cold drinks, ice cream and nice fresh food - sandwiches, salads and scones. Future plans are to establish a run club and a walking group for all.
Are you tired of the constant battle with regrowth? You're not alone And the good news is, there’s a better way. Let’s talk about livedin, neutral blonde This colour technique is all about softening the root area and creating a seamless transition between your natural shade and your blonde The best part? It only gets better with time.
With my clients, the goal is always a natural looking grow-out I work with your roots not against them to build a blonde that blends beautifully and lasts longer between appointments. Once we ’ ve created that perfect lived-in blonde, we can enhance it later with subtle highlights or lowlights, adding dimension without the stress of frequent touchups
I’m lucky to have clients who travel quite far to see me some even from the South Island! For those who can’t pop into the salon as often, this approach is ideal It’s low-maintenance, modern, and allows your colour to evolve gracefully between visits
I’ll work with you to create a custom blonde that suits your lifestyle and always looks fresh. Let’s create a colour that works for you and keeps getting better with time

Bike skills track
ECB members recently met with the Hutt City Council Parks & Reserves team at the southern end of Muritai Road to discuss the kids’ pump track. It was a positive meeting, with the Council confirming their support for the track, within specific parameters. The ECB will continue to work with the Council to put the necessary measures in place.
In the meantime, we ask that anyone using the track please avoid adding new jumps or digging holes until a plan has been finalised with Council. If you’re keen to help with maintenance, please get in touch with one of the ECB members. Keeping the track depends on it remaining safe and well-maintained, both visually and structurally. With enough volunteers, this will be an easy and rewarding task.

A Story from Yesterday, for Today
I visited Eastbourne residents Elisa and John Mendzela to hear about their just-launched book, which has received international recognition for its themes of integrity, transparency and public service.
John and Elisa learned the hard way that institutions often protect corrupt people rather than deal with them. Instead, they turn around and punish the whistleblowers who reported the wrongdoing. In the Best Interests records three years of struggle to stop sexual exploitation of Papua New Guinea students by expatriate educators, and demonstrates how events can quickly and dangerously spiral out of everyone’s control. Their story takes place in the 1980s in a country that might seem very different to our own, but John
believes that the book has strong contemporary and local relevance. “Abusive behaviour by individuals working in public institutions, and harassment of ‘whistleblowers’ continues to this day. We hope our story will encourage anyone in a situation like ours to challenge those who would abuse their official positions to exploit others or suppress the truth.”
Elisa explained to me that it’s people that matter most. “Throughout our story, many different individuals had opportunities to do the right thing, the wrong thing, or nothing at all. Our book pays tribute to those who chose to do the right thing, often at personal cost and risk. Equally prominent was the key role played by reliable and respected reporters who brought our case to public attention.”
In the Best Interests – John and Elisa Mendzela
The Eastbourne co-authors will share extracts from their book. There will be opportunity to ask questions and have the book signed. Book sales available$45 cash only.
Gardening Matters with Sandy HARSH CLIMATES
Factors: : Mid/late-spring. Trees coming into new leaf. Time to buy plantlets. Frost risk over.
Factors: Many factors affect plant growth. Temperature, sunshine and wind are the main ones. But these are just the ‘aerial’ factors. Remember, about half of a plant lives underground. Quite another world - no sun, no wind. The important ‘edaphic’ (soil) factors are temperature and water but there are also things like salinity and acidity (pH). Also, important in both environments are not just the levels of these factors but how
widely they vary with time: hourly, daily, monthly, seasonally, yearly.
Harsh: Our world offers environments of huge diversity in all these factors. They vary especially with latitude and with altitude. Frozen polar tundra, to steamy tropical jungles. Hot and cold, deserts and swamps. But go to the most extreme of these places and you find still plants that have adapted to live there. Although some environmental adaptation can occur over a few days (acclimatisation, see mulchpile.org/63) most adaptation is evolutionarily slow. The highly-adapted plants in extreme environments are specialists. So, for plants, there’s no such general thing as a ‘harsh’ environment. For a specialist plant, what you may think of as ‘harsh’, may be just what it likes. Anything else would be harsh for it. The other way of looking at it is about every environment being ‘ideal’ for some plant species or another.
Clusters: Every species has a
range of environments in which it can survive. So, we usually find particular species clustered in particular regions. But ‘survive’ is not the same as ‘thrive’. So, the next idea to emerge is how good is the fit between a particular plant species and the particular environment it finds itself in? In a species cluster, an individual in the cluster middle is likely thriving in its happy place. One nearer the edge will be less happy but still surviving. One right at the edge will likely be doing it tough. Here there’s frequent mortality, with even minor environmental variations proving fatal. Growth will be slow. Plants deformed as odd twigs and roots succumb to some extreme and die back. These are the ‘harsh’ environments - for that species. But one species’ hell might be another’s heaven. Plants in their happy place are said to be ‘complacent’ (even growth, year by year) and those in a harsh environment ‘sensitive’ (uneven growth, year by year). (see mulchpile.org/51).

The weather has been slow to reflect a change of seasons, but the signs are there, at the Eastbourne Rec.
The goal posts are down and work on the wicket square has begun as the Eastbourne Cricket Club prepares for a new season, continuing a presence at the ground that has existed for more than a century.
The club’s 101st annual general meeting was held on October 12, and the club will again cater for active participants aged from three to over 70.
The club’s senior team plays in the Senior 1 division of the Wellington competition, a new title for the division previously known as the fifth grade. The team finished a creditable fourth in the eightteam competition last season and will have a similar lineup for the 25-26 season, led by Mark Meo.
The first match in the grade will be played at Labour weekend.
Eastbourne will again be represented in the Vintage grade, which is restricted to those aged over-35, though in many instances
Kidz talk
the players don’t need a birth certificate to establish their eligibility. The Eastbourne team has transferred to a different division this season, a move which may, or may not, improve the win-loss ratio.
The vintage games are played on a Sunday, with a maximum of eight games in the season, with the first round on November 9.
Around 85 players represented Eastbourne in the various mixed junior grades last season and though registrations have not closed yet, similar numbers are expected. Most of the grades have mixed male and female teams and Eastbourne will also have a competitive team in the premier girls’ competition, for years eight to 11.
There is also increasing interest in the club’s Super 6 concept, a social six-a-side competition which comprises 12-over matches on a Wednesday night. The teams are open to male and female players, and it is not necessary to have played cricket previously. It will begin in the New Year.
The ECC also reminds players to register with PlayHQ.
Budding cricketers are catered for with the club’s popular Superstars initiative, which promises a fun and social experience for those aged from three to six - and their caregivers - on Friday nights. This will begin on November 14.
There will be regular updates on Eastbourne cricket so watch out for updates and action photos.

Nourish at Home 2025 recap
Local real estate agent Sinead has long been involved in fundraising for Nourish, having heard about the cause from her friend Claire in the early days. “We hosted annual movie nights, thanks to Lighthouse cinema, but I always felt that a 'home tour' concept, along the lines of the NZ House and Garden tour, could work well in the Bays". Hence, Nourish at Home 2024 was born.
The idea was simple - 6 homes, 100 tickets (so a limited event), combined with an opening &
Quick Facts
6 gorgeous homes
117 attendees
16 volunteers
Youngest volunteer was 4 years old
25 event sponsors
23 raffle prizes donated
720 raffle tickets sold
92 lunches ordered
7 private donations
14 bottles of bubbles
Total raised $20,000
closing gathering, a raffle (with prizes sponsored by generous local businesses) & the 2024 goal was to raise $10,000. “We were blown away by the funds raised ($14,000) and so simply had to do it all over again this year”.
We pushed the fundraising goal to $15,000, because we know the demand from families has once again increased.
We added some new elements - lunch at ESSC, and Havana coffee sponsored by Geoff and
Lizzie Marsland. Combined with delicious home baking, bubbles sponsored by Matahiwi and amazing corporate sponsorship by Jason Brown Plumbing and Life Direct mortgages, this made for a perfect opportunity for friends to gather, connect and enjoy a wonderful day in some of the beautiful homes in our community. Phil Benge came along to photograph the event and together we raised $20,000 this year, which, of course, means...That planning for 2026 is already underway.

What is Nourish @ Christmas?
Claire and Gabrielle, the founders of Nourish, talk with the Eastbourne Herald about what prompted them to start Nourish Trust and how it has developed from its early beginnings.
Background
In 2014, co-founder Claire was volunteering at a local school and saw families doing it tough. Determined to bring a little sparkle at what can be a challenging time of year for many, that year she fundraised enough money to deliver 21 Christmas hampers filled with nourishing food to families in the Hutt Valley. What started as an idea with a group of friends, and a small act of kindness, quickly grew into a community-driven initiative helping thousands of local families each year.
Mission is simple but powerful:
"To show we care, supporting families doing it tough by providing them with a hamper of nourishing food".
"We partner with our local primary schools across the greater Wellington region, and ask them to identify families who would
benefit from a hamper of food at Christmas, ensuring every hamper reaches those who need it most. Some schools request one hamper; others may request 100! Each hamper is filled with fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs, pantry staples, and a few treats. With each hamper worth around $150, our annual fundraising efforts are no small undertaking. Over the years, we’ve distributed over $1.25m worth of groceries to 8,337 families".
"This year, we’ve been asked to provide hampers to 1,990 families across Wellington. The fundraising required to meet this goal is significant - $298,500! We raise this money through business sponsorship, grant funding, fundraising activity and individual donations. We truly believe that every dollar donated counts and takes us one step closer to filling another hamper. The Nourish at
Home tour organised by Sinead and her team was a significant contributor to our fundraising target, and we’re so thankful for their amazing support".
"This year has been tough on the fundraising front; however we’re working hard to achieve our goal". For the remainder of the year, Nourish have a few fundraising activities left. There is an auction of some awesome items towards the end of November which could help with ticking some boxes off your Christmas shopping list.
Finally, we have the big day of the year for us – our delivery day! We have over 100 volunteer drivers turn up to deliver hampers to schools all over the Wellington region, bringing Christmas sparkle to families in our local communities.
If you’re interested in being a driver for us on delivery day, go to our website (www. nourishtrust.org) and fill out the form under our Contact page.
If you would like to donate to help us reach our fundraising target, you can do so through our website or via Givealittle https:// givealittle.co.nz/org/ nourish-trust.

Celebrate the launch of "Start Here: A Guide For The Overwhelmed"
The Eastbourne community is invited to celebrate the launch of "Start Here: A Guide For The Overwhelmed" by Eastbourne local Dr Kerry Makin-Byrd. Published by Little, Brown UK, START HERE is an illustrated self-help guide for dealing with burnout featuring science-based solutions that will last a lifetime. START HERE features the illustrations of Katharine Hall and was designed by Catherine Adam of Wonderbird Design.
My friend, the Rev Glynn Cardy, recently posted a reflection on Facebook. He had this to say…
It is in vogue these days to celebrate difference, to applaud and even to plan for diversity. It’s great to recognise the variety of cultures, genders and families that make up the rich mosaic of so many of our communities.
But it’s also hard work. For with difference can come misunderstanding, with misunderstanding can come dissension, and with dissension can come harsh and hurtful words and actions that can take years to repair.
Although children may at times lament being born into a large family, with many siblings and cousins, many personalities and many differences - it is actually a gift. Managed well by parents and other adults, families are a great school for the cultivation of tolerance - for listening before you speak, for learning how to encourage even when you disagree, for making each other strong and resilient before some outside critic or bully tries to flatten you.
The church is frequently referred to as a ‘family of faith’. In following Jesus, it is also called to be a school for the cultivation of tolerance…
