Two Wellington schoolgirls missing for over a week have been found safe.

Porirua police sought help from the public after Ziana Repia, 13, and Sunshyne McLean, 15, hadn't been heard from since Thursday last week.

The pair were found in Palmerston North last night. Police would work with the families and Child, Youth and Family.

Both girls attend Aotea College and when they were last seen they were wearing the school's dark blue uniform with aqua striping and blue shorts.

Between them the girls had a few changes of clothes, a raincoat, a bus pass and $10.

Police were concerned for their safety due to their age and length of time they had been missing.
