What an incredible two days celebrating 25 years of Spacpac Canterbury Polyfest ✨🎶🌺

We were proud to be part of this milestone event, honouring the strength, pride, and creativity of our Pacific families and communities. From powerful performances to vibrant cultural expression, Polyfest continues to be a space where stories, language, and identity shine.

We’re grateful to stand alongside our Pacific communities, not only encouraging screening, but celebrating storytelling in all its forms: on stage, on screen, and in community 💙

Here’s to the next 25 years of culture, connection, and excellence 🤝

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day 2026 💜✨

The strength, leadership, and courage of the women in our communities — the mothers, daughters, aunties, sisters, colleagues, and champions who uplift others through courage and connection.

At ScreenSouth, we are proud to stand alongside the vaine toa and families who share their stories, lead by example, and help remove barriers to screening and early detection. Your voices shape change. Your experiences drive equity. Your wellbeing matters 🤝

To every woman who continues to advocate, empower, support, and nurture, we honour you. To every woman taking that brave step to prioritise your health, we see you. And to the champions who walk with our communities every day — thank you.
