Commemorating Anzac Day from Home

The Team from Auckland Museum

The dedication and sacrifice of New Zealand and Australia's servicemen and women are testament to the Anzac spirit and ability to adapt in times of great crisis.

Although we cannot commemorate Anzac Day with the traditional services and parades this year, we know many New Zealanders will want to mark the occasion from home.

This new webpage brings you a range of ways to commemorate and remember from your bubble. We hope you’ll join us on this significant day in New Zealand’s history.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).

Where possible, do you think employees should be able to work from home? Vote below and share your thoughts in the comments.

We offer diagnosis and repair (where possible) of small electrical items, clothing and textiles, wooden items and general repair. We often have specialty repairs available.

To accommodate everyone, you will be able to see our volunteer repairers for 1 item at a time. If you have more than one item you'd like us to look at and there is enough time, you can register your second item afterwards.

Hang out, have a chat and enjoy a tea or a cup of freshly brewed coffee and a home baked treat.

Koha is welcome for refreshments and for our lovely volunteers.
