The family was returning home after a tangi when the crash happened.
A 3-year-old girl who suffered critical injuries in a Bay of Plenty road crash on Saturday has been transferred to Starship Hospital.
Police said two adults, a teenage boy and two girls, aged 1 and 3, were injured when a car left State Highway 2 near the Opotiki bridge and
crashed into a tree on Saturday afternoon.
The girls, both from Hamilton, were flown in separate rescue helicopters to Waikato Hospital.
The 1-year-old was stable in a ward yesterday while the 3-year-old had been transferred to Auckland's Starship Hospital, Waikato District Health Board communications director Mary Anne Gill said.
The adults, who were returning from a tangi, were transferred from Whakatane to Waikato Hospital last night.
