Saturday Brunch

On Saturday, 6th July 2013, Tiare Ahuriri had a branch brunch at the home of our President Dr Diane Mara.  As usual with our Pacific get-togethers there was food a plenty, lots of talking and laughter. We discussed current branch activity like our Working with Pacific Communities Course.  We focused on future directions, and began planning for PACIFICA Central Region Mini Conference on the 3 August 2013 in Wellington.  It was a wonderful day sharing food, drink, ideas and support with PACIFICA sisters.

Welcome to Tiare Ahuriri branch blog. The purpose of this blog is to communicate, interact, and keep both Tiare Ahuriri members, and PACIFICA members informed of our activities. What we have done? What we are doing? What we are planning to do?

Our mission, vision and objectives are:

Vision - Strong and Successful Pacific women

Mission - Support, promote and strengthen Pacific women and their communities in Hawke's Bay

Objectives - Have fun, support one another, support our Pacific community, provide a Pacific women's viewpoint in Hawke's Bay, and reach out to our sister branches in Hawke's Bay, and nationally.

What's Happening in 2013

A warm welcome to our in-coming President Dr Diane Mara.  A HUGE thank you to out-going President Caren Rangi.  Although Caren steps away from the President role she takes up the role of branch treasurer.  

2013 is looking like another busy year for Tiare Ahuriri as we continue to deliver our course - Working With Pacific Communities. We are delivering this course as professional development for staff at the Napier Family Centre (NFC), and later this year we will deliver a second Working with Pacific Communities course to the NFC.  It has been fabulous working with  NFC staff  and we look forward to further engagement.

A branch brunch for new and current members is scheduled for Sunday, 6 July 2013.  Looking forward to catching up, eating and drinking (juice on the rocks for me) at Diane's place.

There are more activites coming, so stay tuned.
