Branches Meeting: 5:30pm - 6:00pm
Before the official start of the conference, we invite a representative from each branch to attend the Pre-conference Branch Meeting. This is a valuable opportunity for branches to raise key issues, share concerns and highlight priorities directly with State Council.
The meeting also provides an update from the State Council on important advocacy work, ongoing initiatives, and matters that will be addressed during the conference. It’s a chance for open discussion, collaboration, and ensuring branch perspectives are heard at a State level.
We encourage each branch to send at least one representative to contribute to these discussions.
Pre-conference Function: 6:00pm - 9:00pm
Kick off the conference in style at our welcome sundowner, proudly sponsored by the Australian Boarding Schools Association.
Join us for an evening of relaxation and camaraderie in the relaxed atmosphere of the Aloft bar. Enjoy an array of drinks and delectable finger foods while mingling with fellow attendees.
We look forward to seeing you there as we kick off our conference with this delightful gathering. It promises to be an evening of great company!
