Three new members were enrolled.
Mrs McGill gave a report on the Bi-annual Council meeting to which she was delegate. As it was Grandmothers' day, each grandmother present received a spray, also Mrs Le Lievre who, as a visitor, gave an interesting account of the investiture held at Tauranga recently, at which she was a guest.
