Hi
You have reached the site of the Natural Heritage Society, Oamaru Inc, the umbrella organisation for Transition Oamaru & Waitaki District. As such we are part of the world-wide Transition Towns movement.
While we have engaged in a number of activities in the past (see About Us), our current focus is on the Sustainable Skills School, due to run again in January 2014. We have also started a new initiative called ‘TimeBank Waitaki’. Click here to read more about this exciting project
Welcome
Local opportunity from global crises
On Sunday 16 June 2013 Transition Oamaru and Waitaki District presents 'Local opportunity from global crises', featuring Nicole Foss, Margaret Jefferies and Zim and Gail May-Sherman. The event will be held in the Otago Daily Times Ink Box located in the beautifully restored Oamaru Opera House. For more details on this thought-provoking event, click here.
We would like to thank the Waitaki District Council and the Aoraki Polytec for their support.
