We Say/You Say: Anzac Day

The Team from Community News

Hi Auckland,

How are you commemorating Anzac Day? What stories have been passed down through your whānau?

April 25 marks the 106-year anniversary of the Gallipoli landings, one of the most costly campaigns for the Allied Forces during World War I.

Anzac dawn and commemorative services up and down the country are scheduled to get underway after widespread cancellations last year, due to the nation being under Alert Level 4 restrictions.

The NZDF have advised of a reduced presence of military personnel at Anzac services due to deployment at MIQ facilities.

You can check out where the Anzac day services are on this interactive map on the RSA website.

Beautiful Aqua

Georgiana from Glenfield

This is one of those if you don’t ask you will never know posts. And please keep all negative comments to yourself. This gorgeous girl is called Aqua, and she is an 18-week-old purebred black German Shepherd puppy. Aqua has been lame for about 4 weeks and is not getting any better. It is thought that Aqua has a condition called Ununited Anconeal Process (UAP). The right front elbow looks quite badly affected and will need an operation costing approximately $2000. I am currently trying to raise some money towards her operation. A highly intelligent girl who is fully toilet trained, tether trained, semi lead trained, stop trained, come trained. She is very affectionate and is going to be a large assertive dog of great beauty. Aqua is free to an excellent home who is willing to cover the cost of her operation (I will help as much as i can) AND she must be spayed. If anyone has any questions or wants to discuss further, please message me or say so in the comments and I will put you in touch. No time wasters please, must be genuine enquires. Georgiana 0211087655
