Kia ora koutou/ Hi everyone,
Isn’t it fabulous to get a taste of Spring! After the past few months weather we can hopefully look forward to a spot of warmer weather. Daylight savings reminds us to look forward to some outdoor fun.
I have just returned from our wonderful national conference, Keeping PACE. After what seems forever, due to delays with COVID it was great to bring everyone together.

It was fantastic to see a fairly large group from the Upper South, and for the first time we had our Regional Committee altogether. I’m looking forward to seeing what the next 12 months bring with events and ideas that this group have in store for our caregivers.
School holidays and a long weekend are in store for us in October and I hope you are all looking forward to some down time and a few sunny days.
