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

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
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.
