Safety Warrior

In August, NZRC engaged two of New Zealand's most respected and fearsome sportsmen - Tawera Nikau and Wayne (Buck) Shelford - to tell a powerful story about the Safety Warrior to our staff, contractors and their families.

Not only did Tawera and Buck draw parallels from their sporting and personal lives, they also told a passionate story of ancient warriors and how the warrior concept translated into modern society.

More than just a story, this event was a highly entertaining stage show our families could relate to and enjoy.  Here is a short storybook that explains in a condensed version, what the Safety Warrior is all about.

During their time with NZRC, Tawera and Buck attended other engagements on Tuesday 2nd, Wednesday 3rd and Thursday 4 August to help support our local community, clubs and schools.
