Today is Penny’s last day at The WaterBoy with Lugtons, and it’s hard to put into words just how much she’s meant to this place.

Penny has poured herself into this kaupapa - showing up for our kids, their whānau, our sponsors, and our team with genuine care and belief. She’s been a steady hand, a fierce advocate, and someone who always put people first.

The impact she’s had will live on in the confidence of the young people she’s backed, the relationships she’s built, and the community she’s helped strengthen.

Thank you, Penny, for everything. The WaterBoy with Lugtons is better because of you, and we’re so grateful for the mark you’ve left.
