WHAREKAKA NEWS

October 14, 2022 October 2022, Regular Features No Comments

The past few weeks have been busy with many meetings, at Wharekaka, and with other community groups, to discuss Wharekaka’s future.   We have appreciated hearing the strong interest and opinions held by many in our community.   We listened and have done our best to be upfront and transparent in our responses, and provision of information, including financial information.   

The Trust Board is grateful to all those who have written to us, and/or attended our public meetings.  Thank you, your views are important to us.

We are now working through the various suggestions that have been made to see which ideas are most likely to be achievable, affordable, and sustainable.  Meanwhile we continue to operate, with the valued support of our Oak Tree Community and Wharekaka Auxiliary.  

We have our AGM coming up on 21 October.  Please see our website: www.wharekaka.org  for details.
