New to Narromine?

As happens in many of the shires across the western plains, a welcome event has been planned for new shire residents. This time, it’s Narromine’s turn to roll out the welcome mat.

"Council extends a warm welcome to all new residents in the Narromine Region," said Mrs Jane Redden, General Manager of Narromine Shire Council.

To help “warm the welcome,” Narromine Shire Council is inviting newcomers to attend the much-anticipated New Residents Welcome Night which is scheduled for Thursday, May 30th.

The evening promises to be a celebration of community spirit and a way to learn more about the local community.

According to council, the New Residents Welcome Night is designed to foster connections, have some fun and introduce a sense of belonging to Narromine’s newest residents.

"We are really pleased to invite our new residents to this special event, where we hope that there is a chance for newcomers to discover the strong sense of community and to develop some lasting connections," Ms Redden said.

“We will have on hand representatives from the region’s social, sporting and service clubs for new residents to meet and connect with and hopefully to become involved in and embrace our community and sporting life.”

Mrs Redden said the New Residents Welcome Night is always a fantastic opportunity for newcomers to learn more about the region and what is on offer, make meaningful connections with other new residents and to find out about our sporting organisations, service, and social clubs.

Narromine Shire Council Mayor, Craig Davies agreed with Mrs Redden’s sentiment and said he would be attending the event, along with other councillors.

“We hope to see a good turn out,” Mr Davies said. “It’s a great chance to newcomers to get the opportunity to meet councillors and staff, ask questions and just generally allow us to welcome them into the shire. I encourage anyone new to Narromine to come along and learn about our shire and what we offer. It’s a regular event and we get community groups and service groups coming along to give new people the opportunity to see what happens in the town and who's who in the zoo.”

“We would love to see as many new faces as possible."

To take part, Council encourages all new residents to register their attendance by visiting Council’s Public Service Announcement page at https://www.narromine.nsw.gov.au/.../public-service... and clicking on the New Residents Welcome Night 2024.

The event will be held at the Narromine USMC from 5:30pm to 7:30pm on May 30^th.
