While you’re at Arohena Hall, we’d love to talk with Wharepuhunga Ward residents about library services and what matters to you and your community.

What library services would you love to have available in your rural community? What would make it easier for you and your whānau to access library services?

Your ideas will help us shape the future of our rural library service.

Jeni from our Road Safety team will also be joining us with some helpful road safety information, and there’ll be a sausage sizzle available.

Come for the adventure. Stay for a kōrero. Have your say. Help shape your rural library service!
