Kaitaia residents by the hundred have taken a symbolic stand against
domestic violence by planting white ribbons on a main street lawn.
Among those making the gesture to mark White Ribbon Day on Tuesday were more than 40 preschoolers, aged between four months and just under five, from Footprints Educare. Howard Cross, a pastor at Hope Christian Centre, said the church had 1000 ribbons made for the public to stake into its Commerce St lawn.
