Public consultation on our 2025-34 Long Term Plan is open now until 4 March 2025. Find out what it's all about and how to get involved.
To mark Cemeteries & Crematoria Week 2022, local historian, ex-Serviceman, and volunteer for the New Zealand Remembrance Army (NZRA), Barry Gamble will host a talk at Ōamaru Library called Grave Tales: Stories of Bravery from Waitaki’s Cemeteries.
The Waitaki District was the home to many who served bravely in times of conflict and Barry’s presentation will discuss Waitaki’s connections to historical conflicts including the Crimean War, the Iranian Embassy siege, Vietnam war, Boer war and WW1 and WW2.
Barry will provide a PowerPoint presentation with compelling imagery as he tells the stories of those from the Waitaki community who have gone before us.
