Wine Dinner a Great Night

Wine Dinner a Great Night![]() Villa Maria kindly supplied the wines we tasted, led by wine expert Angela Lewis. We had a lot of fun tasting the 6 wines with their matched courses, and enjoyed superb table service from our club volunteer sommeliers. Afterwards some serious wine orders were placed for future enjoyment. Picture shows Angela being introduced by Jeff Hunter |

Model United Nations Assembly![]() MUNA 2019 for Districts 9910 and 9920 was run over 17-18 May at Auckland Girls Grammar School by our club, for the two Districts. Nearly 300 high school pupils from 44 schools participated. Vigorous debate on the 5 remits submitted to the model United Nations Assembly ensued, with plenty of objections and points of order along the way. Delegates also took part in a snap Security Council debate. The event was ably chaired by Ross Robertson QSO former member of parliament, and the awards were announced by 2018/9 President Bevan Iles. Due to Covid-19 the event had to be cancelled in 2020. |

Tamaki Driver Training Car![]() After a concerted effort, and donations from a Give a Little page, the Club is proud to have become the major sponsor for the new Driver Training Vehicle at Tamaki College. The car, a brand new Suzuki Swift, was presented to School Principal Soana Pamaka by 2018/9 President Bevan Iles recently. The school's driver training programme has been developed to prepare school leavers with drivers licences, so that they can enter the job market with confidence, after completing their studies. |
