Welcome to our newest Citizens!

"We sincerely hope that the step that you have taken today will lead to the fulfilment of the hos and desires that Brough you to this country, and that many happy and valued years lie ahead of you as you continue your life's journey as citizens of this country."

Yesterday I joined fellow Howick Local Board members Adele White JP and Krish Naidu to help officiate our Citizenship Ceremony. 319 new citizens from 35 countries, all New Zealanders.
