About Auckland Polish Association (Polish House)

Auckland Polish Association (Polish House) is a community centre at 1 McDonald Street in Morningside, Auckland. It has a 4.1 rating on Google.

Its website says the association aims to honour the history of the first Polish settlers who built the Polish House, Dom Polski, to improve the building for future generations and to connect older members with young Poles arriving in Auckland. It also says it promotes Polish culture and language among New Zealanders, keeps contact with Polish communities here and abroad and contributes to Auckland's cultural diversity. The site posts news of meetings and events, including a visit from delegates of the Polish Committee on Liaison with Poles Abroad. A community centre like this is at its best when people take part, so check the website for upcoming events and whether visitors are welcome. Newcomers are often made welcome at cultural evenings and language activities, and asking a member is a good way to find out what is on.

For anyone in Morningside and central Auckland with Polish roots or an interest in Polish culture, the Polish House on McDonald Street is worth a visit.
