Vision Kāpiti - Have your say on education

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

With kids heading back to school this week we thought it's a good time to ask your thoughts on education in Kāpiti – what could be improved? Share your vision for Kāpiti and have your say online now 👉🏼haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz...

We want to make sure everyone in Kāpiti can access a range of education services to help them to pursue fulfilling careers. We also need to make sure they’re the right type of education services so we can encourage rangatahi (young people) to study here and then stay on to work locally. ✏️🎓📚

We’re already exploring options for an education hub to help students find pathways to employment right here in Kāpiti – and we’d like to hear what you think Kāpiti needs now and for the future.

Visit haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz... to share your ideas and aspirations! Your feedback will help to inform a districtwide vision to enable a sustainable future and guide Council planning now, and over the next couple of decades.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
