AGM: July 12 @ Halswell Centre
Jul 9 @ 9:37 PM – 10:37 PM

Our AGM will be held on 2pm, Sunday 12 July at the Piharau Room, Halswell Centre, 341 Halswell Rd, .   Send nominations for the committee to us by 10 July.

After the AGM we will be showing the highly entertaining comedy about a Jewish Bakery, entitled “Dough”. Please bring a plate of finger food.  No pork or seafood products.  Thanks.

Dough is a heartwarming about a Jewish baker and his community.

Some of the most interesting movies that I’ve seen focus on food: “Big Night”, “Chocolat” and “Chef”, to name a few. Now we have “Dough”. Part look at Jewish baking, part look at a mixing of cultures, it hits all the right notes. Basically, it reminds us that we’re all human, all trying to survive in this modern world. But it’s also got some funny stuff and great lines. I’ve liked Jonathan Pryce in every role where I’ve seen him, and I hope that newcomer Jerome Holder gets more roles like this one. Definitely worth seeing. — IMDB

There will be a presentation of a petition, urging our government to declare all wings of Hamas to be terrorist organisations.

Note the change of time, as Parliament Staff will only let us use a sound system at certain times this Thursday, so we’ve accordingly adjusted the start time of our event.

Please gather at the new time of 12.30pm at Parliament Grounds.

Please bring your Israel & NZ Flags and any placards in support of Israel!
