Like other uniformed children’s groups, the Boys’ Brigade once had a much higher public profile - those with memory of 20th Century New Zealand may recall routinely seeing lads out and about in the organisation’s military-cadet-style uniform.
A network of units around the country has continued since those days, with numbers going up and down over time – last decade the Brigade as a whole was the fastest growing uniformed youth movement in the country, growth which has been somewhat stymied since by Covid.
We have just landed 10,000 pieces of super cool homeware, jugs, teapots, cups, mugs, pots, ornaments, and much more - all priced below cost - from $1 to $20 - great Christmas gifts or maybe pimp your kitchen. Pukekohe Traders - 33 Nelson St Pukekohe

At the dinner the Waikato Rugby Union officially launched the Waikato Community Rugby Fund to the rugby community, which is administered and invested by Momentum Waikato, with proceeds going directly to support amateur community rugby.
The pandemic has been challenging for sport and the Waikato Community Rugby Fund (WCRF) will help secure the WRU's future and continue to enable the grassroots game.
They need your support!
