We are a group who are dedicated to supporting the personal growth and development of all of its' members. We offer a supportive & positive learning experience which encourages the development of communication & leadership skills, self confidence & personal growth.
Who would benefit from Toastmasters?
Anyone doesn’t feel comfortable with public speaking or speaking to others. Learn to speak and be direct, specific and clear. We also look at our non verbal communication. Toastmasters also teaches leadership, presentation and listening skills, such as providing encouraging, constructive feedback
You will find a supportive learn-by-doing environment at Alpine, that allows you to achieve your goals at your own pace. Toastmasters skills can be applied in many real situations, such as introducing yourself, giving celebration speeches, getting your point across and how to engage with people more easily.

Gerda Takes On Te Reo Maori!
This year Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, Māori Language Week, is being held from September 16 to 23. It’s an important week encouraging all of Aotearoa to use te reo Māori in everyday life. Similarly, Mahuru Māori promotes speaking and celebrating te reo throughout the month of September.
Over the last couple of years, Gerda, a resident at Diana Isaac Village in Christchurch, has grown her Māori vocabulary by attending the virtual monthly te reo Māori classes offered to Ryman residents. This group learning environment is run by Anita Gill from Te Puna Reo Māori, a Māori online learning provider.
