The WEA (Workers' Educational Association), set up in 1915, is the longest established provider of adult education in New Zealand.
This Kapiti Coast branch of the WEA was started in 1978 and has progressed to one of the very active branches in the country.
We are a non-profit-making incorporated society registered with the Charities Commission (CC28153), and a member of the Federation of WEAs in Aotearoa New Zealand.
We promote ideals of a just, equitable and sustainable society through the medium of education, delivering two interesting six-monthly programmes per year covering a wide variety of subjects.
