Te Newhanga Kāpiti Community Centre

Te Newhanga Kāpiti Community Centre is closed until further notice, as maintenance repairs are being carried out.

We're committed to maintaining a vibrant, safe and welcoming space for our community to use.

Te Newhanga Kāpiti Community Centre is ideal for community groups/meetings, seminars, business meetings, exercise classes, hobby classes, and more.

***In May we told people who use or might use the Centre that there are some weather-tightness issues in the building.*** Council is working on a plan for how these issues will be addressed over the next 12 months and the Centre remains open. More information is available here.
