Sometimes a picture says it best 🎨

Happy Father's Day to the dads, stepdads, grandads, pāpā, koro and all the father figures and whānau who support and care for tamariki.

Thank you for the encouragement, school drop-offs, homework help and everyday moments that make a difference.

We also acknowledge those who may find Father's Day difficult and send our aroha to you.

Keep your tamariki safe on the road these school holidays! 🚗💚

As part of Child Passenger Safety Week, our FREE Car Seat Safety Check will be facilitated by Little Buds and New Zealand Police, giving whānau the opportunity to have their children’s car seats checked to make sure they are correctly installed, securely fitted and meeting current safety standards.

With the school holidays just around the corner, it’s a great opportunity to make sure your tamariki are safe and secure before heading away.

Come along, get your car seat checked, and travel with confidence!
