What is the Remembrance Tree Appeal?
Everyone has memories of loved ones they have lost or who can’t be with them during the holiday season. Every Christmas we have Remembrance Trees specially put up around the community. For a small donation you and your family and friends can write a special message to share with loved ones or those that can’t be here with you this Christmas.
Look out for our Remembrance Tree’s in your area – or get involved and Volunteer.

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)
.
