New Wellington Eastern Suburbs News Site

moapointHi Wellington, and in particular, hello Eastern Suburbs. We thought it was time we introduced ourselves and let you know what this is all about. Having only been up and running for twenty-four hours we already have had a huge amount of interest from you already.

Peninsula News is a community news website that is designed to cover news and events for Wellington’s Eastern Suburbs. That covers Lyall Bay, Kilbirnie, Hataitai, Miramar, Maupuia, Seatoun, and Strathmore Park.

Ed: Strathmore Park will continue to be opinion based focusing on the Wellington City Council and wider issues.

We’ve been disappointed by the last few years of larger news sites from Fairfax to Radio New Zealand and TV News reducing their coverage of local events. While we still have a couple of local newspapers they are generally advertising focused and we just don’t see the news from our peninsula.

This reduction in local news is not a new phenomena and it has led to the establishment of local news sites all over the country that are often focussed on a single post code. They are volunteer run and are part of the local community itself.

To that end we are looking for contributors, press releases, interviews with you, your business, and stories about what is happening out on the Peninsular. You can email us at editor@peninsularnews.org and we have a Facebook Page here.

We look forward to meeting you over time and encourage you to use the website to spread your stories and events.
