Another awesome Citizenship Ceremony at Hastings District Council.

Gotta love the pomp and ceremony 

 Reading the Oath of Allegiance 

 Kids included 🙂

 Performance by Kahurangi Maori Dance Theatre of New Zealand, always a thrill 

All the new citizens received a Kowhai tree to plant in their new home 🙂
