Commemorating the Tauranga men who lost their lives in the First World War
Tauranga City Council is commemorating the Tauranga men who lost their lives in the First World War with a new interpretation panel outside the Tauranga Domain Memorial Gates, which opened exactly 100 years ago on 11 December 1921.
There is also a ‘Together we remember’ display at Tauranga Library providing more details about the memorial and showcasing items connected to the gates and the men, and posters in the CBD - ‘More than a name’ - which put faces to the names of some of the men who lost their lives.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
