My goal is to personally visit and collate information from 100 New Zealand World War One memorials throughout New Zealand to commemorate the Centenary of World War One and to remember those who paid the ultimate price.

Howick Memorial Unveiling - 13 January 1921
On the NZ History war memorial register they were uncertain about the date the Howick Memorial was unveiled. I happened to come across this article from the Evening Post 14 January 1921. Confirming the memorial was unveiled on the 13 January 1921 by Lord Jellicoe.
Thanks for this, Helen - I've updated our page now:
