Super excited about this event tomorrow with whānau and the wider community!  It didn’t take too much to organise thanks to the supports we pulled in and started through an online chat with strangers and whānau.
Love making meaningful things happen to save our taio.

Rarangi beach will be getting a bit of a spruce-up on Saturday as volunteers gather to do a clean-up and litter survey of the coastline.

The first of three workshops in a safe and positive environment for 14- 18 year old rangatahi. They will learn to:

1. Dream of their potential future
2. Create a PATH (planning alternative tomorrows of hope) plan
3. Creating the steps required

Having a self determined direction creates personal responsibility. Having a step by step plan encourages achievement.

9th, 16th & 23rd August. 5:30 - 8:30pm

There is no cost to these workshops thanks to funding support.

Serena will be their dream believer for these workshops.

To register please message Shani at Korimako House for catering and resource preparation. It is limited to 20 spaces. Don’t miss the opportunity!!!
