Hello everyone, 

Once again SeniorNet Kapiti tutors have been reviewing the Term 3 timetable, and it’s now published so check out below. This will help each of you to plan your ‘winter learning’ needs.

Please don’t forget to take advantage of ½ price courses and workshops until the end of 2022.

As you may recall we had planned to celebrate SeniorNet Kapiti 25th Anniversary on 28 July. However with the Covid-19 numbers rising, the committee have decided to postpone this event. The tentative date is now 14 September, and may depend on the Covid-19 situation closer to that time, your health and that of our tutors is important to us. More below…..

SeniorNet Kapiti are having Open Days on Tuesday 26 July at Coastlands (9am to 4pm), followed by a session on Saturday 30 July (10am to 2pm) at the Learning Centre, 200 Matai Road. Details will be advertised on the radio and in the local newspaper. Please let your friends and neighbours know about this opportunity to find out more about SeniorNet Kapiti.

Well several weeks into their OE, Turkey has given our grandchildren even more energy to travel further afield! We are enjoying their summaries of the adventure they are on. Also the great photos they are sharing ‘online’ no need to email them! All the family are able to access them when and where they wish.

Remember if you’re not sure how to set up an online chat, just let SeniorNet Kapiti know, so we can help get you set up.
