Notes:
Kilbirnie (from Scottish Gaelic: Cille Bhraonaidh), a suburb of Wellington in New Zealand, lies 3 kilometers to the south-east of the city centre. Travellers can reach Kilbirnie from the Wellington central business district either via the Mount Victoria Tunnel and Hataitai; over Mount Victoria; or around the coast. Kilbirnie sits on the eastern flank of the ridge which becomes Mount Victoria and on the flat of the Rongotai isthmus between Evans Bay to the north (part of Port Nicholsoon) and Lyall Bay to the south (on Cook Strait). No clear boundaries separate Kilbirnie from its neighbouring suburbs, with the exception of the town belt to the west which separates Kilbirnie from Newtown. As a result, Rongotai and Evans Bay are sometimes regardedby whom? as part of Kilbirnie.

Kilbirnie takes its name after the town of Kilbirnie in Scotland.

Activities

The suburb features a shopping area, the Wellington Regional Aquatic Centre, a recreation centre, a public library, and a sports field Kilbirnie Park, which is home to the Poneke Football Club, Poneke Kilbirnie Softball Club, Eastern Suburbs Cricket Club and Marist Association Football Club.

Kilbirnie hosts the only mosque in Wellington City. In addition, there is also a Hindu temple located in Kilbirnie, which serves as the headquarters for the Wellington Indian Association.

The majority of the population live in single-storey dwellings, but with a growing population, a strong business centre, and close proximity to the airport and to the city centre, the suburb also has a few apartment buildings, such as Rongotai Apartments, and some new town-house complexes. The 2006 Census revealed a permanent population of 6,429.

Evans Bay Intermediate School is partially in Kilbirnie, however Kilbirnie School is in an area generally considered to be part of the neighbouring suburb of Hataitai. Kilbirnie is also home to three Catholic schools: St. Catherine's College (for girls), St. Patrick's College (for boys) and St. Patrick's Primary School.
