    Another year, another disrupted start

    Kia ora koutou,

    For the fourth year in a row our first term has been disrupted. Let's hope this is all we get for the rest of the year and all of us can settle back into our schools and businesses. Hopefully none of you, our business partners, suffered too badly over the past two weather events.

    Once again, I'm the Business Partner Liaison for APPA and it gives me great pleasure to let you know about our upcoming business partner lunch at Ellerslie Events Centre on Wednesday 1 March. 

    Cecilia Robinson, founder and creator of one of New Zealand’s most successful ever start-ups My Food Bag, will be our guest speaker. Cecilia has three children, two are primary school age and a pre-schooler, and she will speak around the topic, 'Have the expectations of parents towards engaging with school changed, how do parents see their role in school in the 2020’s and what does this look like from both angles?'

    The programme for the luncheon is:

    11:00 Business Partner access for set up

    11:30 - 12:20 Principals arrive

    12:20 Opening karakia and AGM

    12:50 Guest Speaker

    1:30 Lunch served

    2:00 Cash bar available

    2:45 Bar closes

    As you will see in the programme, we are trialling having a cash bar after the lunch for those who want to have a drink and network.

    Below is the roster for business partner marketing at our luncheons through the year. If you are down for marketing at this luncheon, please RSVP through this link or to Sue Green at executivesecretary@apa.org.nz stating how many of your staff will be present. You're welcome to bring more if you wish and Sue will invoice you for those over and above your contracted allowance.

    Business partners who aren't down to market at the luncheon are more than welcome to attend. Here again, please RSVP to Sue at executivesecretary@apa.org.nz and she will invoice you for the lunch. 

    Ngā mihi,

    Kevin Bush

    Annual Luncheon, Wednesday 29 November

    Our end of year luncheon is open to all business partners. However, we do not have stalls at the end of year luncheon, it is simply a time to sit back and enjoy everyone's company.

    Conference, 21-23 June

    Don't forget to lock into your diaries our annual conference in Taupō from Wednesday 21 June to Friday 23 June.

    Before the end of the term we will be sending more information out to you about conference.

    As the conference has become more and more popular, and with the limited numbers  the Hilton can cater for, we are having to tighten up on who can attend conference. Registrations from principals will be accepted first with registrations from middle management accepted should there be space. Likewise, we are going to have to limit how many business partner staff can attend and we will be adhering to the numbers allowed for in the business partner contracts which is the same as the luncheons. 

    Despite getting many calls and emails from companies wanting to have a presence at our conference, we only invite our business partners to conference to give your maximum exposure to the principals who attend. and will continue to do so.

    We look forward to being with you at conference in June.
