Armistice Day memorial service

The Team from Auckland Museum

This month, join us in our World War One Sanctuary to commemorate Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day.

On Sunday 10 November at 1.30pm and 2.30pm, Auckland Girls' Choir will perform in commemoration of the men and women who served and the sacrifices that were made in the two world wars and later conflicts.

The following day at 11am, Monday 11 November, the Armistice Day memorial service will be held to remember all those who served and those who have given their lives in military service.

This date also commemorates the signing of the WWI armistice and offers a chance to reflect on the sacrifices that were made in the hope of securing lasting peace.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
