Celebrating Achievement: New Zealander of the Week Announced

On September 12, 2023, Matt and Tyler announced their latest selection for the New Zealander of the Week during their afternoon show on ZB Radio. This weekly honour recognizes individuals who have made a significant impact on New Zealand, celebrating their contributions to the nation over the past week.

Each week, listeners are treated to three nominees who showcase exceptional achievements or acts of kindness that resonate within their communities. However, only one individual is ultimately selected for the distinguished title. This tradition not only highlights the achievements of New Zealanders but also engages the audience by allowing them to be part of the decision-making process.

Nominees Highlight Community Spirit

The nominees for this week’s honour epitomized the spirit of New Zealand through their diverse actions and dedication to improving the lives of others. By recognizing these individuals, Matt and Tyler aim to inspire their listeners and foster a sense of community pride.

Listeners can tune in to hear the nominees’ stories and the reasons behind their nominations, which often reflect a variety of fields, including community service, environmental advocacy, and innovation.

While the identity of the winner is revealed during the broadcast, the excitement builds as listeners engage with the nominations. The show’s format encourages interaction, allowing the audience to voice their opinions on who they believe deserves the recognition.

Engaging the Community Through Radio

This initiative by Matt and Tyler is more than just a segment on their radio show; it fosters a sense of connection and support among New Zealanders. By celebrating local heroes, the show aims to uplift communities and encourage listeners to contribute positively to society.

As the program continues to evolve, it remains a platform for showcasing the remarkable achievements of ordinary New Zealanders. The New Zealander of the Week segment has become a beloved tradition, fostering pride and recognition within the country.

Listeners are encouraged to tune in every Friday for the latest announcements and to celebrate the contributions of their fellow citizens. By highlighting these stories, Matt and Tyler not only entertain but also inspire action and community engagement across New Zealand.
