✨ Mānawatia a Matariki ✨🙋At the NZSMIRT we are embracing Matariki and taking time to remember, reflect and look to the future 👀Our Regional Directors wanted to share their reflections with you so you can get to know them better and to encourage you to also embrace Matariki and take time to pause and think 💭☀️ Sibu is the Auckland/Northland regional Director of the NZSMIRT, here are just a few of his thoughts this Mataraki! ✨✨ Who are you remembering? - Matariki Hunga NuiAs we celebrate Matariki, I am taking a moment to remember my loved ones who have gone to be with the Lord Jesus. This includes my siblings Bongani, Sibongile, Nelisiwe and most importantly my parents Siphoso (dad) and Hlalaphi (mom). I am also remembering my late in-laws – Nelisiwe (sister-in-law) and Mkhulunyelwa (father-in-law) - MTSRIP.🌱 What are you planning for - Matariki Manako NuiI am planning for more celebrations of life milestones including my son’s 21st birthday and my 25th Wedding anniversary. I am also planning for growth in whatever form it comes – spiritually, materially, socially, mentally, physically, and family.🙌 Ngā mihi Sibu for sharing with us! We love you choice of image too - using the taonga of wai 🌊We hope you have something great planned for this weekend, and if you are working today so that our patients can still access healthcare services - thank you! 👏 ...

When I remember Dan, I think of how much he loved the people in his life and how lucky I was to be one of them.🎉 What are you celebrating - Matariki Ahunga NuiI’m celebrating running my first 100 mile event in February. This was the biggest challenge I’ve ever set myself to run and I still can’t believe that I actually managed it! I think one of the things that helped me through was a lifetime working as a MIT, decades of shift and on call work meant that when others who were running through the night were flagging, I was still feeling alert and awake. Words cannot express how it felt to cross the finish line after 34 hours and 49 minutes with some of my closest friends.🙌 Ngā mihi Caro for sharing with us! ✨We hope you have something great planned for this weekend, and if you are working today so that our patients can still access healthcare services - thank you! 👏 ...
