The trading or open days vary and it's not clear cut. If a particular shop or activity has an exemption they can be open but many just close on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Here's a few links http://employment.govt.nz/er/holidaysandleave/publicholidays/shop-trading-area-exemptions.asp and http://www.stuff.co.nz/marlborough-express/news/2323393/Who-can-trade-during-Easter.
Best bet is to call or email something you may want to do in those area's to see if they are open.
