Kua uru mai a hau kaha, a hau maia, a hau ora, a hau nui,
Ki runga, ki
raro, ki roto, ki waho
Rire, rire hau…pai marire

Bring calm, bring all things good, bring

Queen Elizabeth II
The Waiheke
Local Board acknowledged the recent passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,
and the proclamation and ascension of King Charles III to the throne, as well
as his appointment to the position of King of the realm of New Zealand, our
head of state. The board wishes to thank the Waiheke RSA for hosting a
thoughtful and well planned local memorial service for Her Majesty the late
Queen Elizabeth II, and for ensuring all those who wished to mark the occasion
were not only warmly welcomed but were also graciously hosted for a community
morning tea.
Kim Goldwater
The Waiheke
Local Board acknowledged the passing of Kim Goldwater, founder of Goldwater
Vineyard with his late wife Jeanette. They will be remembered as pioneers in
the winemaking industry and ambassadors for the island. The couple had an
enduring reputation as being helpful and generous, as demonstrated by their
gifting of the vineyard to the University of Auckland to support wine science
programmes. Kim was known as a hard-working perfectionist and loyal friend,
with an infectious sense of humour and he will be remembered fondly by all
those who knew him.
