Your invitation to a special night
Monday 8th July at 7.30pm
“Uluru Statement from the Heart”
EXPLAINED
Guest speaker Lynda-June Coe
Lynda is from Fighting In Solidarity Towards Treaties - a social and political initiative aiming to represent and liberate Australia's First Nations people.
FISTT aims to create platforms and space for negotiating Sovereignty and Treaty nationwide.
“A treaty for me represents freedom. This country cannot call itself an equal society that is just, if its First Nations still have those colonial chains,” Lynda-June Coe said.
This night will be different to the usual as the supper will be a bowl of soup! Pumpkin or Lentil Soup & bread roll. Tea, coffee and cakes will be available as usual.
So we know how much soup to make, we need you to help us by booking your seats. No Fee, just let us know how many are coming via info@asgmwp.net
All welcome - this is a Free night, including supper

Lakeview Room, Narrabeen Tramshed Community Centre (map)

This film is inspired by the New Story Summit at the Findhorn Foundation in Scotland: a sold-out multicultural, inter-generational inquiry into a new story for humanity, attended by change makers and activists from over 50 countries. The film is a beautifully and sensitively woven tapestry of the rich diversity that is the human family. Featuring live event coverage and interviews on the essential topics of our time: from ancient wisdom to current thinking, from leadership to governance, from economy to social justice, from education to initiation, from cosmology to ecology, from community to sustainability.
Captured through the lens of both our frailty and our wisdom this inquiry into a new story for humanity recognises our interdependence with the planet and in partnership with all life. What if we had the power to change the story, and with this awareness, change the world?
This evening is PNB’s annual winter soup and film night. Entry is $8 for non-members and $5 for members. Organic teas, coffee, and soups are also available on the night for a small cost. All are welcome!
A swap table is available for home and garden items and plants and seeds if you wish to contribute or swap.

NATIVE BEE HIVE BOX BUILDING
Sunday, July 7, 2019
1:30pm – 4:30pm
PNB has for five years had a native bee hive program where we distribute native bee hives to community gardens, community groups, and committed PNB members. We assist in hive splitting every spring usually in October or November and then re-distribute the split hives again throughout the Northern Beaches. Native bees are a keystone species in our local area - they are vital for the biodiversity of our native flora due to their role as pollinators. To keep a native bee hive you are playing a direct role in protecting the biodiversity of the Northern Beaches.
This workshop is building the hive boxes for the native bees so as we can be prepared for the hive split season ahead and pass on these skills to people in the PNB community. Hives are split on average every 1-2 years.
If you would like to attend this workshop please contact: matt@mattwilsontiling.com
You can also be involved in watching a hive split and workshop in the spring when we will use these boxes.
If you would like to know more about the PNB bee program please contact our bee team leader Paul Hoskinson at: eustacestmanly@gmail.com
