Soccer Meet Up Sunday 28 September

Hi All,

As you may know, Wellington has is own Soccer Club called ' Wellington Phoenix'. One of the upcoming big matches is on Sunday 28 September when the Wellington Phoenix will play Sydney FC in the A-league competition game in the Westpac Stadium in Wellington. Welly Rocks will organise a meet up around this event. For those who are not familiar with soccer, there will be other Welly Rocks members who can explain the rules.

The location for this meeting is The Speight's Ale House on Tinakori Road in Thorndon, Wellington from 2.30 pm onwards. For those who want to go to the stadium to watch the game you can head to the stadium around 4 pm having enough time to buy tickets and watch the game. For those who are not interested in watching the game, you can stay and continue your conversation with a glass of wine, beer or cup of tea/coffee.

If you are keen to join us, please drop us an email on info@wellyrocks.com

The social event will be around soccer but will also give recently arrived migrants to meet other 'new Wellingtonians' who are a bit longer in the city.

There will also be a special guest and we are looking forward to seeing you all.

Cheers,

Marco & Hilly

Pictures from the mid winter meet up in the Hummingbird

Hello all

This beautiful winter day the sun didn't only shine (finally) outside but also inside the Hummingbird. We thought the atmosphere was great and it was nice to see everybody chatting and enjoying themselves! It was good to see so many familiar faces and also welcoming new ones ! We received very positive feedback about the location "the Hummingbird" from several attendants so we will keep this in mind. If anybody has a suggestion about a location you think it's worth trying for a meet up, we are more than happy to know, so please drop us an email.

Hope to seeing you all at the next event !

Cheers,

Marco and Hilly
