The Duke of Edinburgh has died at the age of 99, Buckingham Palace confirmed late last night (NZT).
Speaking to media in Auckland this morning, Ardern said the Prince had a strong connection to local organisations, including the New Zealand Defence Force.
She said the groups will want to acknowledge the sad news in their own way.
It is fair to say, it will be a hugely significant loss for New Zealand, and those organisations that were supported by Prince Philip.

Our thoughts are with Her Majesty The Queen at this profoundly sad time. On behalf of the New Zealand people and the Government, I would like to express my sincere condolences to Her Majesty and to all the Royal Family, Ardern says in a statement.
Prince Philip will be fondly remembered for the encouragement he gave to so many young New Zealanders through The Duke of Edinburgh s Hillary Award.
The Royal Family Twitter account confirmed the news on Friday night. The 99-year-old prince had recently been hospitalised in February 2021 for what Buckingham Palace said was a precautionary measure after he felt ill.

Prince Philip s death at the age of 99 has sent a wave of mourning around the world, with leaders from Scott Morrison to Narendra Modi paying tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh.
But it started with a black-clad website and a four-line statement from Buckingham Palace, published at midday local time, or 9:00pm on the east coast of Australia.
It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty the Queen announces the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness the Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, it said.
His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

Live: Prince Philip dies age 99, world leaders pay tribute


Daily Mail, controversial broadcaster Piers Morgan has described Prince Philip as an extraordinarily selfless man .
He was tough, uncompromising, fiercely loyal, incredibly hard-working, unapologetically belligerent, and suffered fools as benevolently as a lion suffers a weak-willed gazelle in the African bush, Morgan wrote.
The news of the Duke of Edinburgh s death hit me hard.
4:45pm - The New Zealand Army will fire a 41-gun salute at 12pm on Sunday April 11, in honour of His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
The salute, which will take 40 minutes to complete, will be fired from the saluting battery at Point Jerningham in Wellington.

Prince Philip's death: New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says thoughts with Queen


The Royal Family Twitter account confirmed the news on Friday night. The 99-year-old prince had recently been hospitalised in February 2021 for what Buckingham Palace said was a precautionary measure after he felt ill. 
Ardern says flags on all government buildings and naval vessels will be flown at half-mast and following his funeral a national memorial service will be held in Wellington.
During his lifetime Prince Philip visited New Zealand 15 times - 10 with the Queen, and five without her.
In 1953 he was at the side of the newly crowned Queen as the couple visited 46 towns and attended 110 functions.
New Zealanders will also remember The Duke of Edinburgh s enormous support for Her Majesty The Queen, Ardern says.
