"Inclusive Poatina: Poatina Village Green was filled with people on January 25 celebrating the villages second annual Terra Populous gathering after deciding to forgo its traditional Australia Day festival in favour of a more inclusive community event. It was a day of storytelling around the theme of water with stories from the different eras of the Poatina area."
