We would appreciate being given as much notice as possible to ensure the best time slots for your requirements to be met.
The bond must be paid and contract signed no later than 3 pm the day before the day of hire.
Recurring bookings cannot be made any further than 30 June each year.
There is a minimum hire period of one hour.
Preparation and setup time is charged by the hour. It is not included in your daily usage fee and needs to be part of your booking.
Booking extensions can be arranged at no extra cost if no other bookings have been made.
Hirers will forfeit all deposits if a booking is cancelled at any time within a period of two weeks prior to the date of hire, and a 20% postponement fee will be incurred should you wish to change your booking date within the two week period.
All refunds are at the discretion of Te Puke War Memorial Hall Management.
Bonds
All bookings must be confirmed by payment of a bond and signing a contract between Te Puke War Memorial Hall and the user.
You can make an application for a bond refund once your invoice has been paid. Invoices are issued the first week of every month.

Although there is no onsite catering available, we can provide you with a list of local caterers.
Alcohol
Events with alcohol hold a higher bond.
The use of alcohol within the hall is subject to a responsible attitude being demonstrated,
and users are to ensure that members of their party do not abuse the privilege.
There are no glasses are available.
A Special Licence is required for the sale and supply of liquor.
This can be obtained from the Western BOP District Council.

You are allowed to clean the facility yourself to avoid extra cleaning costs,
so long as the hall has been restored to the condition originally set.
This will be monitored by the hall Manager.
However, a standard cleaning fee of $200 is required for the stadium floor if alcohol is to be consumed.
If the cleaning standard has not been met after hall hireage, the Manager may contact you to return and complete the task. Otherwise, they will clean to the required standard at a charge of $50 per hour.
