Where to commemorate Anzac Day in Canterbury

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

On Wednesday, April 25, New Zealand and Australian soldiers – the Anzacs – landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey.

Since 1916, Anzac Day has become the day New Zealanders acknowledge the service and sacrifice of all people involved in military conflicts. It commemorates more than 300,000 New Zealanders who served their country and the 30,000 who have died in service, and had been a public holiday since 1921.

A list of the main services across the region is included in the link below. For local services contact your RSA.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱

Hi, I'm wandering if anyone has a contact number for Kakoi Catering. I'm looking for some catering for an event and have googled but only appears to be on Facebook which I don't do. Thanks
