WWI descendants gather at RSA

More than 200 people attended an Anzac Day Remembrance Dinner at Warkworth RSA last month, as part of the Gallipoli campaign 100th anniversary.

RSA manager Robbie Blair said guests were seated in the districts of their forefathers – Kaipara Flats, Warkworth, Matakana and Leigh.

Many stories sad and uplifting were shared. Pictured, are Mr and Mrs Woodcock, descendants of S. Woodcock of Kaipara Flats.
