VIEW NA01 Port Stephens International Women's Day 2026

On Monday 9th March Port Stephens held its International Women’s Day breakfast, at the Murrook Culture Centre, hosted by Meryl Swanson Federal Member for Paterson, Kate Washington State Member for Port Stephens and Leah Anderson Mayor of Port Stephens who is also a member of the Nelson Bay VIEW Club.

Over 300 attended this fantastic International Women’s Day event with 27 VIEW Club members with representatives from Myall River, Nelson Bay, Raymond Terrace and Tilligerry VIEW Clubs. Also present was Angie Carroll National Vice President, Anne-Louise O’Connor Past National President as well as Leanne Ferguson and Breanna Landwehr from The Smith Family Communities for Children. Two of our VIEW ladies even won a raffle prize!!

VIEW Club was also fortunate enough to have a stall at this event giving members the opportunity to promote VIEW to the wider community. Many of the guests attending showed an interest in VIEW and our connection with The Smith Family including one person whose mother had been a member of the Hervey Bay VIEW Club. A stall has been booked for the 2027 IWD!

It was an amazing day especially hearing from students from 7 of the local schools which was very inspiring knowing our future is in good hands.
