Vanuatu Independence Day celebrated by kiwifruit workers at Te Puna

The event has been organised by DMS Progrowers for RSE workers who hail from Vanuatu.

DMS Progrowers human tesources manager Rachel Trimble said it employed 69 RSE workers from Vanuatu who wanted to celebrate the occasion.

"They took it upon themselves to organise the event and because it was important to them DMS has given them the day off to celebrate. It is going to be a huge celebration and they have extended an invitation to other Vanuatu workers who live in the Bay of Plenty."
