At Wellington Toastmasters, members learn by speaking to groups and working with others in a supportive environment. We meet once a fortnight for 2 hours. Each meeting gives everyone an opportunity to practise conducting meetings, giving impromptu speeches, presenting prepared speeches, and offering constructive evaluation.
Wellington Toastmasters meets every 2nd, 4th and 5th (where applicable) Monday of the month.
The meeting commences at 5:30 pm with a break in the middle for tea and biscuits. The meeting concludes around 7:30pm .
