Engagement centre - Waikanae Library and Community Hub

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Our Waikanae engagement centre is now open for the new Waikanae Library/Community hub at 2 Mahara Place! Pop in to comment on options for the new Waikanae Library and Community Hub – the engagement centre will be open six days a week for up to six weeks.

After considering several building options, Council is seeking community input on the three most achievable, affordable and sustainable options. We’re also asking people to tell us what’s most important to them for the new facility to provide.

As well as visiting the pop-up engagement centre, you can provide feedback online at haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz... or visit our stand at community markets over the coming weeks.

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
