INVITATION TO ALL OF THE AVONHEAD COMMUNITY
Some of the children in your orchestra/choirs will be performing for the local community very soon. They will be commemorating the anniversary of the 2011 earthquake that took so many young lives. Most of the children will not remember or even perhaps not been born at the times but the local Avonhead community are invited to hear items being performed by six local schools. Since 2017 Friends of Avonhead Cemetery Trustees (FOAC) have hosted this event around the Monument built within the cemetery as a Memorial to the victims whose many remains are beside the monument.
Hillary Muir of the Breeze Radio will compere the one-hour event and this year our Mayor has agreed to attend. There will be some seating there for the elderly. FOAC would be delighted if parents and friends of your school could attend and support the children involved with your particular school.
