Road works - Kāpiti Rd from 1 October
🚧Heads up motorists – road works are coming to Kāpiti Rd. From Sunday 1 October we’ll be renewing the surface between Arawhata and Rimu roads as the surface is deteriorating and to keep it safe for all users it needs to be fixed.
This work is expected to take up to 10 days and there will be some disruption and as work progresses there will be changes to the road layout – please take care and follow the guidance of traffic management.
Ngā mihi for your patience while we get this essential work done, especially with all the road projects in the area.
Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
