The Rotary Club of Auckland Airport recently held its annual multi-cultural festival.
This popular event was born out of the division created by differing opinions surrounding the Covid injections.
“As we came out of the period of restrictions it became obvious to us that our communities needed healing by being brought together within a common cause,” the club’s Guy Slocum said.
“That idea quickly grew to include a desire to bring different ethnicities and their cultures together in a spirit of friendship, knowledge and understanding.
“So, at the event, we invited a large number of ethnicities to come to a social evening for good conversation and a multitude of performances from different cultures.
“Everybody attending brought food from their culture and this gave all participants an opportunity to enjoy food that they might not have experienced before.
“We are very grateful to Barfoot and Thompson Consultants Simone Young, Lorreta Li and the Howick office of Barfoot and Thompson who kindly sponsored this year’s event which allowed us to expand the evening to new heights.”
Despite the name of the Rotary Club, it is a regional club and draws members from North Shore, Manukau, Weymouth and Papakura although most of our members live in the Howick, Pakuranga and Botany areas.
“We are currently expanding and would welcome interest from anyone, of any age, who likes the idea of impacting the community in a beneficial and fun way. Our activities are very diverse and there is something to interest everyone,” said Slocum.
