ANZAC Day Services
After two years, our three local ANZAC Day services are making a welcome return this Sunday 25 April :)
Details of the Birkenhead, Glenfield and Northcote services are below. These services are proudly funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board.
Wreaths: All local groups are welcome to lay a wreath at any of the services. Kaipātiki Local Board members are aware that unfortunately not all groups that usually lay a wreath have been contacted this year, which is an error that we are following up on. Feel free to leave a comment with your group name below and we'll make sure it is added to the list. Please be assured that if your group's name is not called, there will still be an opportunity to lay your wreath.
