KCE Tree of Light
KCE has three Trees of Light adorned in colourful twinkling lights:
- Rora Street in Te Kuiti
- Memorial Park in Otorohanga
- Hakiaha Street in Taumarunui
The trees shine a light year-round on different special occasions and awareness events that are dear to the heart of our community.
Watch the trees’ lights change colour as the months pass by - they might be red for ANZAC Day, yellow for Daffodil Day, green for Conservation Week, and more.
