GREETINGS TO ALL:
OUR MAY MEETING WILL BE DATE:
SUNDAY 24 MAY 2015
TIME: 12:30 P.M.
VENUE: ROTORUA ARTS VILLAGE, ( 1240 Hinemaru Street)
This month is A Special Event. We have invited the nine Mandarin Language Assistants to join us. We will have a special lunch to welcome them to Rotorua. It will be mainly a social time but hopefully they will introduce themselves and tell us a little bit about themselves. All nine have accepted the invitation. You do not have to worry about communication because they all speak very good English. So come and enjoy the afternoon and for those of you trying to learn Mandarin you can have a practice. We do ask that you please let us know if you will be attending for catering purposes. You do not have to bring a plate for sharing. Just bring yourself and enjoy.
