The New Zealanders at home today, preparing themselves and their families for the weeks ahead, will occupy a unique place in our nation's history. It's the moment when every one of us—as parents, as friends, as New Zealanders—makes clear just what it is that we value above all else. It is a moment that generations of students and scholars will study to find out what it says about how we as New Zealanders cared for one another, and the actions that we were willing to take to care for everyone. Let's ensure that they tell the story of a nation whose people knew that together, by following simple rules and taking simple actions, they could protect others and shape the future of Aotearoa New Zealand.
