The first week of Kiwibank Local Hero Medal Presentations has come to an end, and what an absolutely amazing week it has been! We are slowly making our way around the country to honour the Local Heroes who are making our communities a better place for everyone.
Our first five presentations were held in: New Plymouth, Palmerston North, Napier, Gisborne, and Tauranga.
Each night slightly different to the previous, with the different regions having their own vibe and spirit. None any less inspiring than the others, our presentations have been filled with copious amounts compassion, respect, love, and gratitude. Including also some amazing waiata and hakas performed by both medal winners and their family, friends and colleagues.
Please find below a link to our Facebook page, where you can see the photo albums of the first five Kiwibank Local Hero Medal Presentations.
We still have plenty to go! So if you are from the presentations this week; Wellington, Nelson, Hokitika, Christchurch and Blenheim. Keep an eye on our Facebook as we will be putting them up very shortly.
