On tomorrow in Ōtaki - FREE Find Your Play sessions

The Team from Kāpiti Coast District Council

Our free Find Your Play sessions are back for the July school holidays, and our first activity is on tomorrow! Come along to Ōtaki Memorial Hall for two hours of cardboard chaos 10am–12 midday, where tamariki can use cardboard and other recyclable materials to bring their imagination to life. ✨

Next week, join us for our all-abilities play session, 11 July at Paraparaumu Memorial Hall 10am–12 midday. This activity is supported by Special Olympics New Zealand.
