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.

Feel free and share your stories below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comments used your local community paper.

Theresa Vause from English Language Partners Auckland South

Learners from our Papatoetoe ESOL literacy classes learnt about ANZAC Day. They made some poppies and visited the Papatoetoe Historical Society Museum where they learnt how medals were crafted and about the RSA.
Thank you to the Papatoetoe Historical Society Museum for having us.

One of our most popular projects for our Level 4 Advanced Cookery students is to design a three-course menu, costed to a budget and then prepared for a friend to savour.

The three-course menu includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made ribbon pasta and dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme. Take a look at this week's impressive efforts enjoyed by the Advanced students. They then serve the meal for their own guest and also get to sit down and eat with them.

Here are some photos of the creative dishes prepared for the Mediterranean Luncheon.

kittens for adoption

Dorina from Papatoetoe

I used to feed a stray cat and now she brought her 3 kittens on my deck. They suck and eat solid food too. I have a dog, and he is not very very happy about this. If anybody wants 1 or all, please let me know. They are friendly, they look very healthy and well looked after.
