Other Events
Visitors
We host visiting dignitaries, such as Ministers of
State from Ireland, or the Ambassador from Canberra.
We endeavour to ensure that these guests get to see
the spirit and flavour of our group - family-oriented,
enthusiastic, welcoming and friendly - and are able
to take away some memory of what we hope is always a
pleasant time.
A special highlight was the visit to our premises by the President
of Ireland Mary McAleese and her husband Dr McAleese on 30 October
2007.
Music Sessions,
As often as we can we like to hold music sessions. The attendance at
these varies as the people with musical abilities or expertise waxes and
wanes. They are often a feature of Friday evenings, and the emphasis is on
participation and fun.
Christmas parties Each year we mark the festive season with parties for the adults
and the kids, and join the annual Parade
through the centre of Hutt City.
After all, we have to enter into the spirit of the season!
