Last Week's Meeting - 31st March at Maungakiekie Rotary Club
18 Members and 1 partner of the Club visited Maungakiekie Rotary of 19 members at Royal Oak Bowls, in Onehunga: The keynote speaker was MP Greg Fleming, who spoke well of the learning he has experienced in his first term as the Member of Parliament for Maungakiekie. He serves on the Māori Affairs Committee and is Deputy Chair of the Petitions Committee. Greg clearly has a grasp of what his role is, and where he can make a difference. He declared that he began 12 months ago as the 3rd former, and now assesses that he has just reached the lofty heights of a 1st Term 4th former. He was a good speaker and was very happy to respond to member’s questions
Next Meeting: Monday 31st March at the Bowling Club:
