The welcome experience september update

New recruits to Murrumbidgee Police in Griffith

The Welcome Experience (TWE) had the privilege of welcoming eight new NSW Police probationary constables to Griffith, presenting them with welcome packs filled with local resources and community gifts to help them settle in and feel supported from day one.

Earlier in the month, TWE was invited to speak at the Beyond the Line event in Temora, where over 60 pre-service teachers and principals gathered to explore the opportunities and challenges of starting a career in regional education. The presentation offered a warm introduction to the Riverina and highlighted the value of community connection for those considering a move to the region.

Our local Welcomers continued to shine, with Mendie representing TWE at Tumut Library’s Open Day, and Alicia Pumpa receiving her welcome pack in Griffith after relocating. The packs—filled with practical items and local experiences—continue to be a highlight for new arrivals, helping them feel valued and informed as they settle in.

TWE also strengthened ties with Corrective Services, supporting partners of essential workers and exploring new ways to collaborate. Conversations with DCJ have opened doors to include career information and resources in future welcome kits, expanding the support we offer to those joining the region.

As we look ahead, TWE remains focused on creating meaningful first impressions and building lasting connections for those who choose to live and work in the Riverina.
