Te Tai Ohinga – Youth Hub
We’re working with the Y to develop a central city youth hub – a friendly and safe space for young Wellingtonians on Willis Street.
Our young people expressed a desire for a safe place to hang out and have fun with their friends, try new things and have quiet spaces to study and relax – we want the youth hub to be exactly that.
The name Te Tai Ohinga was gifted by Kura Moeahu, Chairman Te Rūnanganui o Te Āti Awa. It celebrates how young people (Ohinga) will always be in Pōneke, just as the tide (Te Tai) will always ebb and flow.
Construction is scheduled to begin soon, with Te Tai Ohinga expected to open its doors later this year with an official launch.
