Coastlands Aquatic Centre’s programmes and toddlers' pools are closed for maintenance

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Kia ora Kāpiti. Coastlands Aquatic Centre’s programmes and toddlers' pools are closed for maintenance until Monday 7 August. These pools have closed earlier than the initial planned date of Monday 24 July, when the rest of the facility will also fully close until 7 August.

We apologise for the inconvenience; we know our customers love their visits to our aquatic centre! During this time we’d like to invite you to join us at Ōtaki Pool, where we’ve added more AquaFitness classes during this period.

We look forward to seeing you back at Coastlands Aquatic Centre on 7 August when we’ll start sharing our 10th birthday celebration plans. To find out more about our aquatics facilities, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.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.

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