So proud of these wāhine! It's about time we celebrate the Pacific women who've been holding our communities together for decades. 🫶

Chloe Martin2026-07-03T01:06:07.000Z

Cool but what about the other groups? Seems like we only ever celebrate one community at a time.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-03T01:37:07.000Z

coz other groups get their own events too? This is a specific celebration. Nothing wrong with that.

just let people have their moment. Pacific women deserve this.

Yeah nah this is awesome. Porirua's Pacific community is so strong. Love to see it.

Bet the council spent heaps on this. Could've used that money for something practical tbh.

Chloe Martin2026-07-03T02:28:07.000Z

here we go. It's a showcase of culture not a charity mate.

Ella Thompson2026-07-03T02:36:07.000Z

it's a museum exhibition. Probably cost less than your weekly shop.

Noah Bennett2026-07-03T02:37:07.000Z

lol cope. They spent money on a sign and some photos. Not a stadium.

Where abouts in Pataka is this? Keen to take the kids after school tomorrow.
