Our miracle man, Semisi Naiqara, on his final day at ABI Rehabilitation Services. When Semisi arrived there in October 2024, it took two people to get him out of bed. This incredible team of clinicians lead his rehab with superb professionalism, love and care. He walked on 22 July 2025, and he is now back at school three days a week. Semisi was injured on 5 September 2024 and surprised everyone with his recovery. Michael, Tatiana Fatialofa and big brother Tommy, welcomed Tana. Robbie and Kelsey Hewitt with baby Ellie. A wonderful fundraiser hosted by King Country v Wairarapa Bush, where we were named the Charity of Choice. These players’ jerseys were auctioned off, and we were gifted a very tidy sum of $15,000.00. See above: Our late Patron’s son, Glynn Meads and brother-in-law Paul Mitchell with the jerseys. Our heartfelt thanks to King Country. Peni and Ana Moimoi with Peni Junior.
