Welcoming Week has concluded for 2024. Thanks to all those who took part.
Tasman’s third annual Welcoming Week is jam-packed with events planned right across the District. Welcoming Week focuses on bringing people new to our community together to feel included, and also for them to share a slice of their culture with others. The week runs from 6 – 15 September 2024.
From an international book exchange for non-English books at Richmond Library to migrants sharing their stories in Motueka, or family NERF wars in Murchison, the list of events is sure to have something for everyone.
There's a tamariki whānau day at the Golden Bay Rec Centre, and the week wraps up with a multicultural potluck dinner at the Motueka Memorial Hall where you can share food and good company.
Check out the Welcoming Communities Tasman Facebook page (external link) for a comprehensive list of activities and events.
Settling into a new area, if not a new country, is always challenging and finding out about local opportunities, making new friends, and becoming part of the community takes time, but events like Welcoming Week are here to help.
