Festival of Fun | Kenakena School, Paraparaumu | Saturday 12 November, 10:30am-2pm
The Kenakena School Festival of Fun is coming up soon! Better get it in your calendar, Kāpiti!
Santa's opening the event with a special appearance at the Donovan Rd Entrance at 10:30am.
Look forward to seeing you at the bouncy castles after that - we'll race you on the obstacle course!
There'll be lots of opportunities to win awesome prizes at the raffle and tombola stands, face painting and crazy hair, and some fab food and entertainment on offer. Don't leave without some toys, books, or new plants for your garden!
Kenakena School has nearly 600 students so it's an important part of our Kāpiti community. We hope we'll see you there to have lots of fun and help us raise money for the school pool, library books, Dyslexia Unit and other vital school programmes.
Thanks so much to our generous sponsors: Love Live Kapiti Real Estate, Hellers, Coastlands Shoppingtown, Bimi Sushi - Kapiti Coast, Kapiti Equestrian & Vaulting Centre, Specsavers (Paraparaumu) Interislander, Rock Solid Solutions, Carpet Court (Paraparaumu), and Fisher and Paykel (Paraparaumu) - we couldn't do it without you!
