Members Update at 1st September 2021
Kia ora koutou and warm greetings,
We hope you are seeing some light in the tunnel with yesterday’s news of fewer new COVID-19 cases, an encouraging sign. We obviously have a way to go still, and we send you and your whānau best wishes as we continue our Alert Level 4 lockdown in Auckland and Northland. Our hearts are with any whānau who are experiencing illness and hardship.
