What does this mean?

Our rural community is friendly and supportive and works together to achieve common goals. We want to ensure that the strong and distinctive spirit and character of our community does not change over time. This is who we are and we are proud of it.

What do we want to see?   

• The spirit and character of the Opotiki Coast community remain strong and distinctive
• Events and activities provide opportunity to work and play together
• Opportunities to learn about the community made available
• People being proud to be involved in collective efforts
• People being encouraged, and having the capacity to give to their community
• The open, friendly character of the people remains unchanged.

How will we achieve this?

We will value and promote this aspect of our community and we will support and encourage positive community activities where people work and play harmoniously together.
