Kia Ora,
Wow, what an incredible night! Thank you to everyone who joined us for an absolutely epic evening of dancing, rugby, and celebration! We pulled out all the stops to honour the 100th anniversary of the legendary 1924 All Blacks Invincible team, and it was nothing short of spectacular!
The night was brimming with mouthwatering food, exquisite wines, and the electrifying sounds of Shane Cortese and the 8 Track Band. And let's not forget the thrill of the after-party rugby match that kept the excitement going!
A massive shoutout to our amazing sponsors, ANZ and Air New Zealand, for making this unforgettable event possible. Plus, a huge thank you to everyone who brought a slice of Kiwi magic to the night—whether it was gin, wine, cheese, honey and so much more. It was truly a Kiwi evening to remember, and we couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you!
On another note, I'd like to remind you that our AGM is quickly approaching. This free members-only event is held on 19th September at the High Commissioner’s Residence, so be sure to register! It's a fantastic opportunity to meet the existing executive board and cast your ballot for the new board candidates. Full event details are available on the registration page here. We hope to see you there!

| What a night! The Invinciball was nothing short of amazing.
We celebrated 100 years of The 1924 All Black Invincibles in style at Sofitel Singapore Sentosa on Saturday. The gala dinner was a hit, showcasing the best of New Zealand’s cuisine and wines. Shane Cortese and the 8 Track band had everyone on their feet, and the auction brought out some friendly competition for incredible prizes.
Thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a memorable evening. Here’s to the next one!
