Congratulations Nika!

Something pretty cool happened this morning. We held a special private citizenship ceremony for Nika Pankratova, a talented 15-year-old artistic swimmer from Welcome Bay who attends Otumoetai College.

Nika officially became a New Zealander this morning, with Terry Fergusson-Hughes, one of my fantastic office team members and a Justice of the Peace, proudly leading the ceremony.

Nika trains an incredible 12 hours a week during school terms and up to 8 hours a day, six days a week during the holidays. She’s set to represent New Zealand at the Oceania Championships in Sydney next month in both team routines and a duet, followed by the Junior World Championships in Hungary this August.

Huge congratulations, Nika! We’re all so proud of you and can’t wait to cheer you on.
