Part of Ōtaki School Tradition is an annual visit from the Korean War Veterans, their whānau, representatives from the Korean Embassy and Aotearoa New Zealand Army.
They join us for morning tea before they have their own ceremony by the memorials outside Tāhora. They then are welcomed into the Whare Manaaki with a pōwhiri. It is with sadness we saw but a few veterans this year. However it was a lovely morning.
The Army was present with one of their machines. Tamariki greatly enjoyed speaking with the men at this time.
