Welcome to our Blog.
On the 16th September a Community Meeting was held in the Waipa District Council Chambers in Te Awamutu to discuss the possibility of organising a community SPLICE project centred around the local stream that runs through the town - the Mangaohoi Stream. This project would be ostensibly run by local school students, but supervised/facilitated by a guidance team of community specialists.
The initial community meeting was well attended - with representatives of Environment Waikato, Enviro- Schools, SPLICE, Sports Waikato -Project Energize, Te Awamutu Online, TA Fish and Game,Community Police, Safer Communities Trust, Waipa District Councillor, TA College student representatives, TA Primary, Pekerau Primary, St Patricks Primary, Te Awamutu Intermediate,TA Youth Services, Baptist Church Youth Group leaders, TA Museum, TA Community Board,The Courier, Weed Maintenance Contractor,Paper Plus, Collins Flooring and TA Water Safety.
The meeting was proposed and facilitated by Richard Hurrell (Community Constable & Safer Communities Trust), Donna Dyet (SPLICE & elearning Facilitator) and Robyn Irving (Enviro- Schools Facilitator). All TA Community members.
Below is a powerpoint (slideshow) outlining the idea (and posing initial questions from local children).We welcome all comments and community suggestions.
