Media Release 17 March 2019



A public vigil is being held today at Laurie Hall Park, central Whangarei, starting at 6pm. The vigil, coordinated by Carol Peters with support of community groups, churches, District Council and police – and with the agreement of and endorsement by the local Muslim community – is open to all.

“This is an opportunity for all of us in the communities of Whangarei to come together in the face of this terrible that has impacted on Muslim families right through Aotearoa – and on all of us. This is a chance to show our compassion and honour our common humanity,” said Carol Peters.

Prior to the Vigil, a Peace March will start at 5pm at the Clock Tower at the Town Basin and proceed from there to Laurie Hall Park. The March is being organised by Emily Henderson. As many as can manage this walk are encouraged to join in.

The Vigil will include a mihi whakatau and karakia led by local kaumatua, prayers, songs and reflections. It will conclude before 7.30pm with a statement from the Muslim community and a prayer by the Imam, and the singing of the national anthem.

In our own backyard, our youngest kids are going without the basics. Unlike schools, early childhood centres don’t have a nationwide support programme. Children under 5 are at the most crucial age for brain development.

But KidsCan is helping. Since October they've been delivering five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres, and kitting out kids with new raincoats and shoes. They want to extend the programme, so no one misses out on learning.

KidsCan, Neighbourly and Stuff have partnered up to raise enough money to feed and clothe 1000 more children under five. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz.
