Central Committee - We Want You!

SLANZA Central region committee wants to be able to do more for and reach a greater number of people in our region - but we need help.  Given our large geographic area it is difficult for us to organise events throughout the region and reach our entire membership.  We think you could help solve this problem for us.  We would like you to become a committee member.


Benefits to being part of the Central committee:
  • opportunity to learn new skills
  • make new connections, both locally and within the larger region
  • bring face-to-face professional development to your local area
  • opportunity to shape the professional development you and your colleagues receive
  • professional and personal developments that come with being on a committee
  • opportunity to work alongside Miriam Tuohy, SLANZA president


Being on the committee is easier than you might think:
  • meetings: generally we only meet once a term to organise a PD event; meetings are held online via Skype and are not a big time commitment
  • travel: meetings are held online, so no need to travel for those, and you will not be expected to attend all the PD events in the region
  • time: one committee meeting and one PD event per term is about all you will have to commit to
  • conscripted tasks: we won’t force you to volunteer for anything
  • lack of skills / knowledge: you might believe you don’t have anything to offer, but that doesn’t mean it’s true - we think everyone has something they can contribute


If you are interested in becoming a member of the SLANZA Central committee and would like to attend our next meeting to see what it is all about contact Sandi Faulconbridge at [email protected]

Alternatively, you can contact any of the committee members with questions or expressions of interest:

Sandi Faulconbridge (Chairperson), Taradale Primary School, Napier
