Congratulations to our First Aid Kit winners

The Team from Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management

We had a great response to our "What's your tsunami plan?" competition. It sounds like you're all ready.

Congratulations to our winners:
Ann from Motueka
Lou from Wainuiomata
Angie from Rangiora

Remember:
- In a large local tsunami causing earthquake, roads may be damaged or blocked, so include walking.
- Don't wait for an official warning, there may not be time in a local source tsunami.
- Remember long OR strong, get gone.
