Halswell Liaison Group
Hi everyone,
The Halswell Liaison group meeting for April is Tuesday 11th at Te Hapua. We will once again have 2 meetings:
Lunchtime - 12.30pm - Piharau Room
Evening - 7.30pm - Te Hapua (Hao room) This meeting is after Library hours so please come to the front entrance and we can let you in.
This month we are starting to think about the future and what we would like Halswell to look like in 5, 10, 15 years time if there were no barriers (like time, money, volunteers etc). From there we can begin to draw up action plans of what is possible, what the priorities are and what we can begin to work on this year.
We will also look at the best way to prioritise those hopes and goals for future meetings
Please remember to invite anyone you think should or may like to join the conversation and if you are unable to make the meetings this month but have some burning ideas to share, please feel free to email me so we can add them into the mix on the day
Looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday
