Irish Interest Group AGM
This is notice of our AGM to be held on Saturday, 7th June, 10.30 am – 2 pm at the Tawa Union Church, 6 Elena Place, Tawa, Wellington. Our speakers will be Emma-Jean Kelly and Maureen O’Sullivan, talking about their Irish ancestors James O’Grady and Mary Lane Ambrose, who both died in mental institutions.
We will be celebrating 20 years of the LNI Irish Interest Group with an Irish-themed cake! Registration, tea and coffee from 10am with the AGM starting at 10.30am.
If you'd like to join our committee, or want to nominate someone else, you can email the completed Nomination form to Irish.LowerNISIG@genealogy.org.nz or bring it along to the AGM. We'd love some new committee members - we usually have around 4 meetings a year in Johnsonville.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
