Dear APANZ members,

We are coming to the close of 2024 and wanted to say an enormous thank you for your continued support and contribution to the life of the association. We appreciate all of the times you have engaged together this year to think and discuss important topics that affect our communities and we look forward to seeing more of this engagement in the new year across Aotearoa.

We wish you and your loved ones a restorative break, be it peaceful and reflective, or fun and adventure filled, or maybe a good mix of the two!

Luisa will be on leave from 2pm Friday 20 December, returning to work on Monday 6 January 2025, and the APANZ office will not be staffed over this period. Council members will be on recess from 20 December until 31 January. If you need any urgent input APANZ President John O’Connor can be contacted on email johnnygj@xtra.co.nz.

Meri Kirihimete and happy holidays to you!

Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou,
Luisa Maloni and John O’Connor on behalf of APANZ Council
