Join Us for a Community Gathering on March 20th – Let’s Connect, Share, and Grow Together!

Kia ora everyone!

We’re excited to invite you to a special community gathering on March 20th, where we’ll be sharing updates on both past and upcoming events in our area. Whether you’ve been part of our past activities or you’re looking forward to the future, this is the perfect opportunity to connect, stay informed, and engage with your local community.

This time, we're thrilled to partner with Upper Hutt City Council, offering you the opportunity to ask questions and have a chat with the Mayor and other councillors. Plus, we’ll be serving food, so come along and join the conversation! What are you waiting for? 

What's Happening at the Gathering?

In this hui, we’re doing something extra special. We’ve teamed up with Upper Hutt City Council, giving you the opportunity to sit down, ask questions, and have an open conversation with the Mayor and other local councillors. It’s not every day you get to chat with the leaders who are helping shape our community, so this is a fantastic chance to voice your thoughts, raise any concerns, or simply get to know more about what’s happening in our city.

But that’s not all – we’ll also be serving delicious food to keep everyone energized and engaged. Whether you’re coming for the conversation, the food, or both, there’s no reason not to join us!

Why You Should Attend

This gathering is about more than just updates. It’s about building stronger connections within our community. It’s a space to:

• Catch up on past events: If you missed any of our recent activities, this is a great way to get up to speed on what’s been happening in our community. From local festivals to volunteer efforts, there’s always something going on.

• Get excited for upcoming events: Stay in the loop about what’s coming up! We’ll be sharing exciting new initiatives, community projects, and events that you won’t want to miss. Whether it’s family-friendly activities, cultural events, or opportunities to give back, there’s something for everyone.

• Talk directly to local leaders: With the Upper Hutt City Council partnership, you’ll have the chance to engage with key decision-makers. Have a question about the city’s development? Want to discuss the future of public spaces? This is your moment to connect with those in charge.
