• New Zealand is the farthest point on the map from many places, and the N.Z Jewish community has depended on the constant arrival of new migrants.
• England, then Russia, then Germany, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Holland, then Hungary, then South America, then Israel and the most significant group, from South Africa.
• South African Jews have added numbers and strength to the Auckland Hebrew Congregation.
• In the 2 decades since the first migration began, this new group has seen its members play a part in every aspect of Jewish life in Auckland.
