Community Potluck Lunch
Friday 5 September 2025 at 12:30PM
Kōraunui Stokes Valley Neighbourhood Hub
Event Description
As part of Welcoming Week – Te Wiki o Manaaki Aotearoa, we’re inviting the Stokes Valley community to come together for a Community Potluck Lunch. Bring a plate of kai to share. It could be something from your culture, a family favourite recipe, some baking, or simply some fruit. Then, join others to connect over good food and conversation.
You can come any time during the event, even just for a short visit on your lunch break.
The event is for everyone, whether you’re new to the area or a long-time local. It’s a chance to meet new people, celebrate our awesome local community, and enjoy the spirit of manaakitanga.
If you can’t make it but would still like to contribute, you’re welcome to drop off food at the Hub the day before or on the morning of the event.
Let’s celebrate building stronger communities together – because no matter where you’re from or what language you speak, we’re glad you’re here.
