The Melville Collective Impact Project
Kia ora, Teenaa koutou, Malo, Hai, Ola, Namaste:
The Melville Collective Impact project that was formed in October 2019 with the guidance of local iwi (tribal authority) Waikato-Tainui and haapu (sub-tribes) of our area. To clarify the Melville Area that this project supports is the suburbs in West ward such as: Melville North, Melville South, Bader, Fitzroy, Peacockes, Glenview and Resthills. We are re-branding our name as it does not yet attribute all the suburbs of our Area.
There is alot of changes that you would be noticing going on around our nick of the woods , or even heard about through the grapevine. That's why this project has been formed to allow our community no matter what background to be leaders for our area - to let local government, schools, businesses and health providers what we want to see in our community.
If you would like to have your say on what is happening within the community and our area please complete this short survey (at the end of this post). Or if you would like to become an active member for our community come along to the next meeting being held at Melville Intermediate on Tuesday 4th August, 5:30pm. I have included our first paanui (notice) put together after our second design meeting with some of the members of our community - we still need your say. It also explains what a collective impact team is.

PM says the ‘war on farming’ is over, at Fieldays’ Mystery Creek
The rural sector will pull the country out of recession, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon told farmers at Mystery Creek on Tuesday.
Luxon’s main message was that farmers are not villains, they are “partners” of the Government and the saviours of the New Zealand economy.
