Whakamaua ki ngā whetū
Kāore i ngā tokerau! Aim for the stars – Not for the glow worms! KIA HIWA RA! KIA HIWA RA! He karanga tēnei ki ngā hapū o Ngāti Kahungunu ki Te Wairoa me Ngai Tūhoe! Kua hinga tō mātou pou arā he tōtara nō te wao nui a Tane. Ka nui te pōuri! Ka nui te mamae – Aue! Aue! It is with great sadness that we farewell our Dad, who has left us to join our beautiful mother, Judy. Karakia for Adrian Trevor Galvan will be held 10am Monday 9th May at Pickering Funeral Chapel before departing to spend time with his whānau at home, Waiatai Road for the night. He will then continue his journey to Taihoa Marae, SH2 Wairoa, at 10am on Tuesday 10th May 2022. A funeral service will be held at Taihoa Marae on Thursday 12th May 2022 at 11am.

Rest in peace Sir. One of the most stand out teachers from The Rock who genuinely cared about his students. You've taught generations of our families with the right amount of discipline and unconditional love.

I never really went to his class to learn about art. It was much more than that.
