Registrations are open for Over the Fence Cuppas.

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

In just a few weeks, neighbourhoods around Kāpiti will be bustling with events as Over the Fence Cuppa season kicks off, and we’re inviting you to join the fun.

The annual initiative, supported by Kāpiti Coast District Council and Neighbours Aotearoa, encourages community-minded people to organise an event in their streets or surroundings. It’s a great way to nurture local connections, grow resilience, and enhance well-being. There’s also plenty of Council support to get you started, including event packs full of ideas and resources, games to borrow, an invitation to a host launch event with our Mayor Janet Holborow, and the option of inviting a guest presenter to run a workshop.

Registrations close Friday 28 February. To find out more or register to host an event, visit Over the Fence Cuppa - Kāpiti Coast District Council.

Quote for the Day

Mike from Paraparaumu

"Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
I think he's from the CIA."
