Options for new Napier pool revealed
SIMON HENDERY
Three options for Napier’s
proposed new Aquatic Centre
have been released.
Napier City Council is propos-

options.
It will also consult the public
on two alternative options – a
more expensive Olympic-size 50m
pool or a cheaper extension of the
existing facilities.
Option one, the Ivan Wilson

Parade
Napier’s Marine Parade has been the setting of
earthquakes, aquariums, legends, murals and just
off its stony shore a secretive U-boat mission!
These stories are set to be shared duringTe Wiki O
Te Reo Maori (Maori Language Week).
Jake Brookie and Brenda Gunn from the National
Aquarium of New Zealand are hosting free guided
walks – for locals - of Marine Parade, with a focus
on what connects the National Aquarium to the
sea, early next month.
Napier’s waterfront has been the site of many and
18+ varied activities and attractions. “Many landmarks
of Napier were made around the pre-earthquake
estuary. Even the wooden beacons near Hawke’s
Bay Airport were used to guide ships into the
much larger, pre-earthquake estuary,” says Jake.
Participants will also be encouraged to learn how
to introduce themselves in Te Reo. “Te Reo is a
truly living language. Place names around Ahuriri
have a direct link to our history, something I am
eager to share,” Jake says.
“Napier has a wonderful connection to the sea
