  • District 23 - History in Brief
    DISTRICT 23 - HISTORY IN BRIEF Ronda Walker. October 2015. District XVI ‘Zonta in the Antipodes’, edited by Hazel King AM, documented the history of Zonta International District 16 from 1965 to 1989. Hazel also outlined the brief history of the first Zonta Club of Sydney, which was formed in 1929 and had disbanded by 1935. Zonta returned to Australia in 1965. At the request of the then ‘Chairman of Organisation’ Ms J. Maria Pierce, Miss Dorothy Thompson from the Zonta Club of Toronto 1, Canada, visited Australia in 1965, 1969 and 1971. Miss Thompson organised clubs in the capital cities of all Australian States and in five cities in New Zealand. These 11 clubs were first described as ‘undistricted’ and were managed as part of the Asia-Pacific ‘Area III’. Joyce Fildes, from Canberra, was Area Representative for 1970-1972. The description changed from ‘Area III’ to ‘Region III’ in 1972-1974, with Cherry Raymond from Auckland as Regional Representative. By 1974 there were 18 clubs in Region III and these clubs were the nucleus of District XVI, which was established at the start of the 1974-1976 biennium. Judith Dey, from Sydney, was the first Governor of District XVI. The first District XVI conference was hosted by the Zonta Club of Perth, in September 1975. In the biennia that followed, the role of Governor was rotated between the two Nations. In 1977, under the leadership of Governor Beverley Bennett from Wellington, District XVI was divided into 4 Areas. The first Area Directors served for three years to 1980, encompassing the 1978-1980 term of Governor Elizabeth Todd, from Sydney.
