AU: First National Daystar's community seminar strikes a chord
👓 2 minute read
A free community education event hosted by FN Daystar (Revesby, NSW) has generated an outstanding response, with more than 30 bookings received within the first three hours of registrations opening – many for multiple attendees.
Scheduled for 29 July at the Revesby Workers Club, Network Night – Work with the Experts brings together a panel of trusted professionals covering finance, tax law, real estate, investments, construction and conveyancing.
The initiative was developed in response to recent budgetary changes and growing community concern about finding reliable financial information in an increasingly complex environment.
Agency co-owner Michael Sleiman said the evening is designed to give local people access to credible, independent advice from experienced professionals they can trust, with a particular focus on helping younger Australians build a strong foundation for responsible investing and long-term financial decision-making.
Open to the public and free to attend, the event reflects FN Daystar's commitment to supporting its local community beyond property transactions. With attendance capped at 100 people, members of the public were encouraged last week to secure their place by registering as soon as possible.

Supporting local communities has always been at the heart of First National, and Trina Martin from FN Surat Basin Chinchilla (Qld) is continuing that tradition by sponsoring the Chinchilla Showgirl and Rural Ambassador Dinner Dance for the second consecutive year.
The event celebrates and encourages young people who are developing leadership skills while representing their local community. Trina said she was proud to support an initiative that invests in the region's future.
'It's an absolute honour to sponsor this incredible event for the second year. Meeting such talented, confident, and inspiring young people in our community is something I truly value. The future is in very good hands, and I wish every entrant the very best.'
The sponsorship is another example of First National members contributing to the communities they serve – not simply through property, but by backing local organisations, events, and the people who help regional Australia thrive.
