Shirley Stratton
Rotary is not just a club that you join, it is an invitation to endless opportunities
Shirley (and Kevin) moved permanently to their home in Raumati in 2015 after Shirley retired from a 23-year stint as Principal’s Nominee and teaching Science subjects at Naenae College in the Hutt Valley.
In September 2015 Shirley joined Kapiti Rotary so that she could be involved in, and contribute to, the local community. She has been involved in several Club projects that have been of significant benefit to Kapiti residents.
In this year of ‘Rotary Opens Opportunities’ her vision for the club has 3 main areas of focus:
- Engagement of all members in Club activities.
- Action and Visibility in the Community through projects.
- Supporting 3 of Rotary’s Centennial projects – The Trees, Trees, Trees project at the Local Level, The Wellington Children’s Hospital project at the District Level, and the Give every Child a Future project at the International Level.
Kapiti Rotary is renowned for its vibrancy and community service

Rotary has been working to eradicate polio for more than 30 years. Our goal of ridding the world of this disease is closer than ever.
As a founding partner of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, we've reduced polio cases by 99.9 percent since our first project to vaccinate children in the Philippines in 1979.
We've helped immunize more than 2.5 billion children in 122 countries. So far, Rotary has contributed more than $1.8 billion toward eradicating the disease worldwide.
Today, polio remains endemic only in Afghanistan, Nigeria, and Pakistan. But it’s crucial to continue working to keep other countries polio-free. If all eradication efforts stopped today, within 10 years, polio could paralyze as many as 200,000 children each year.
We are so proud to announce that our very own member Marilyn Stevens has been selected as the District Governor Nominee Designate for the 2022-23 Rotary year.
Dear Rotary Members,
The committee and I would like to pass on to the members of Rotary our heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful people that helped the Kapiti Food bank move premises last Friday.
We could not have done it without you. The people power, the truck, the van, the cones, the trolley lifts, the laughter, the energy, the giving was such a joy to witness and be part of. You're a great asset to our community and the giving is done with such generosity. Thank you from all of us.
Please feel free to pop in and see what the finished premises look like.
Kindest Regards
Kerry Lovell and Committee

Fifteen Rotarians, 6 chainsaws, a thorough Health & Safety briefing, 4 trailers, heaps of nice dry gum, scrumptious lunch, plenty of banter and great camaraderie on a beautiful day in Te Horo resulting in beautiful firewood with some donated to those in need and some sold with proceeds to Kapiti youth. Job well done. Winners all round. Thats just what we do at Rotary.
