NEW ZEALAND CELEBRATES GRANDPARENTS

Grandparents Day in New Zealand is a heartfelt occasion dedicated to celebrating grandparents' invaluable role in families and communities. This significant event is championed by the surrogate Grandparents New Zealand Charitable Trust, highlighting the importance and support it receives.

The first Grandparents Day in New Zealand was celebrated in 2010, inspired by similar observances in other countries. Since then, it has become an annual event held on the first Sunday in October.

Grandparents are special in New Zealand society, often serving as caregivers, storytellers, and custodians of family traditions. Their wisdom, love, and support are crucial to the upbringing and development of younger generations. It's not just important, but essential that we recognize and honor their contributions, as it fosters a culture of appreciation and respect.

Grandparents Day in New Zealand is a time of joy and warmth, as people come together in various ways to celebrate. From intimate family gatherings to lively community events, the day is filled with shared stories, laughter, and love. It's inspiring to see schools and community groups taking the lead in organizing events such as picnics, storytelling sessions, and intergenerational activities that bridge the gap between the young and the elderly, fostering a culture of appreciation and respect.

The history of Grandparents Day in New Zealand is rooted in the recognition of the need to honor and celebrate the elderly population, particularly as society becomes increasingly aware of the challenges they face, such as social isolation and age-related discrimination. By dedicating a day to grandparents, New Zealanders can reinforce the importance of family bonds and ensure that older generations feel valued and respected.
