Sixty-five years ago the first Australians went overseas with Palms, at the invitation of communities who had asked for help with work they were already doing. Since then more than 1,500 people have gone where they were invited, to share their skills alongside colleagues across the Pacific, Asia and Africa.

Program

• 1.00pm – Walk from Bondi Beach to Tamarama through Sculpture by the Sea. A coastline covered in sculpture will feel familiar to anyone who spent time on an island.
• 3.00pm – Afternoon tea at St Anne’s, North Bondi. Bring a plate. During the afternoon we will share the best of Stories from the Field from thirty years of Palms Post, alongside photographs from the archive.
• 5.00pm – Mass at St Anne’s, where we will remember Palms volunteers and partners who have died.

Venue: St Anne’s Catholic Church, corner of Oakley Rd and Mitchell St, North Bondi NSW.

Getting here: road closures and clearways are in place around Tamarama and Bondi Road during Sculpture by the Sea. Please come by public transport if you can, and let us know if you need help arranging a lift.
