The 2026 Annual General Meeting of the Mentor Support Network (MSN) will be held in early April as a follow up to early year planning for the organisation’s coming year.
Chair of MSN, Julie Rich, said the management committee had set Tuesday, 7 April for the 2026 AGM which will be held at the function room of the Newcastle Harness Racing Club at Broadmeadow.
“The harness racing club is one of our long-term supporters and we are thankful to them for allowing us to use their facilities with the AGM starting at 10.30am,” said Julie.
“The AGM is an important event on our yearly calendar as the Annual Report and Treasurer’s Report will be presented while it will lead to the election of a new committee and then office bearers for the positions of Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson, Treasurer and Secretary at the first normal meeting.”
MSN members have been invited to the AGM where they will be informed about activities in the past 12 months which included expanding the organisation’s scholarship program to include two new opportunities for those current scholarship holders entering Year 12 and future tertiary studies.
Julie said a total of 51 students from high schools and vocational colleges in the Hunter Region were awarded 2026 Educational Scholarship and these will be presented at a formal presentation on Tuesday, 5 May.
