Join us for an evening to celebrate YOU!
In preparation for upcoming National Volunteer Week (June 20th to June 26th), we want to celebrate the hours volunteers have put into protecting and enhancing Kaipātiki’s natural spaces and supporting Pest Free Kaipātiki in our goal for a healthy and flourishing flora and fauna in the region.
We also like to take this opportunity to thank those who have volunteered with PFK in the past, and those who have expressed an interest in volunteering in the future.
During the event, we also want to ensure that all our volunteers, new and old, feel confident volunteering, whether that be at community events, as street champions, working in hit squads, or helping out at planting days. To this end, we have some skill-building activities planned to help us get to know each other, and PFK, better.
We would love for you to join us for an evening of community building and celebration. Get in touch if you are interested enquiries@pestfreekaipatiki.org.nz

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
