We’re really excited to announce that your Tūranganui-a-Kiwa Gisborne isite is about to have a wee refurbishment over the month of May!

We will still be operational in a smaller capacity over the construction period. Bus and show tickets will still be readily available

This does unfortunately mean that Putt Putt 35 Mini Golf will be closed from Monday 05/05 until further notice.

We can’t wait to share our re-imagined and refreshed space with you really soon

We are the regional community trust, focused on community wellbeing, economic development and providing for future generations.

Wow!

This morning we received a letter in the post all the way from Swansea in Wales. It was from Peter Davidson who visited our slice of paradise all the way back in 1971!

After what sounds like the quintessential trip around the coast (sleeping in barns and then at the old jail when it was a camp ground) Peter took these brochures home as a memento of his time in Tairāwhiti.

After all these years he's decided to return his beloved brochures to bring a smile to a few dials and provide a flash back of how we looked 50 years ago.

Well Peter, I assure you that you've done just that. Your letter and brochures have been the talk of the office today - thank you so much!

We're definitely popping something in the post to send back as a thank you.

Which of your favourite spots look a wee bit different in these pics?
