Secretary- Sandra Anderson
Norlane Community Centre
I have been involved with Norlane Community Centre for 36 years since it opened in 1986.
Norlane Community Centre changed from being a Committee of Management to become a Board of Management. This has been an exciting but adoring era. My positions have varied from Committee Member to Secretary to Chairperson which is my current role.
I also joined the Neighbourhood Houses Barwon (Formerly the Barwon Network of Neighbourhood Centres) Committee on Monday 12th August 1997. I have enjoyed my position as Secretary and seen a great deal of changes to the Committee and specifically the Networkers that have been employed by us. Changes have continued to be exhilarating and stimulating to us as Committee members.
One of my dynamic periods was being on the Neighbourhood Houses Victoria (Previously the Association of Neighbourhood Houses and Community Centres) Board of Management for 6 years. After being a Board Member for 2 years I was elected on to the Executive as Treasurer and spent 4 stimulating years increasing my knowledge and awareness of funds, grants, assets, and resources. Being on this Board was both captivating and educational. This has assisted me to be the person I am today.
I have a passion for people and all communities. I am looking forward to working with Deb Kearney as our new Chairperson and all the other Neighbourhood Houses Barwon Executive Committee members in 2022/23.
