The Community Christmas Lunch began in 2010 initially as a response post-earthquake. For the first three years, the Lunch was managed by Kaiapoi Community Support, with the Reflections Community Trust taking over in 2014.
Held on Christmas Day at the Kaiapoi Rugby Football Club Rooms, Smith Street, Kaiapoi, the Community Christmas Lunch is an opportunity for people who may not have anyone to share Christmas with, or anywhere to spend Christmas, to come together, have a good time, make new friends or meet up with old friends and enjoy a special Christmas dinner in a cheerful and friendly atmosphere.
Doors open at 11.30am. National Waimakariri MP Matt Doocey will open the event, followed by lunch served at midday. Christmas cake, tea and coffee will also be served. Santa will pay a visit to hand out Christmas presents to the children and a lollie scramble. will also be held. The event finishes at 2.30pm.
Adult tickets are $22.00 (to cover the cost of the food), with children under 14 years old dining free (the tickets for children under 14 years old are kindly subsidised by Mainpower.)
