Commemoration dinner celebrating 100 years of history!
South Taranaki Mayor Ross Dunlop says it is very fitting that John Gildroy Grant VC and Henry John Laurent VC are recognised 100 years after each being awarded the Victoria Cross.
The heroic actions of these Hāwera men during WWI are to be commemorated with a special Mayoral Dinner to be held at the TSB Hub, Hawera.
The guest speaker for the evening is Brigadier (Retd) The Honourable Justice Tim Brewer ONZM, ED.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
