Auckland Council and the Auckland RSA have come together to provide plenty of opportunities for Aucklanders to honour the military veterans who displayed courage serving our country.

Although the number of in-person services and ceremonies across the region is reduced as a result of the red-light setting during planning, there are still many ways to commemorate at home or in the community.

The dawn service at the Auckland War Memorial Museum is limited to veterans and invited guests only. The public are encouraged to view the service at home on Māori Television.

Visit ourauckland.nz/anzacday for ways to commemorate Anzac Day.

This week our Advanced cookery students designed a three-course menu that includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made pasta - ribbon or ravioli, plus dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme.
This is one of our most popular projects as the students must design a three-course menu, cost it in a spreadsheet to meet a specific budget, create a menu card and timeplan to help them execute the tasks. They must serve the menu to a guest who arrives at 12.30. Everything is done on the day. The students also get to sit with their guest to savour and enjoy their creations.

Along with our cookery students, the Food & Beverage, Level 4 students showcased excellent wine and food service to the guests.

Some of the dishes prepared were -
- Pan seared fish with salsa and mesclun salad
- Fettuccine Al Burro with handmade pasta
- Semolina cake soaked in orange blossom syrup, rosewater sorbet, pistachio crumb & candied orange peel

Accunect is based on the idea that the body can heal, and that to really activate healing in the body you have to find the root cause. It’s not enough to treat the physical body – you have to balance the nervous system in order to help how the body is being managed. And the nervous system is controlled by our mental state. For true healing – rather than just addressing symptoms temporarily – you have to address all levels: body, mind, and spirit.

Accunect is based on finding your unique path back to health using the Accunect Health Map – a kind of road map of all the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual aspects of the body. We help find the quickest path back to vibrant health for each individual. Thousands of people from all walks of life have studied Accunect worldwide. Parents can use Accunect for family wellness care, and health professional from massage therapists to medical doctors use Accunect to get to the deeper roots of disease. It’s very easy to learn, very quick and non-invasive to practice, and the results are both gentle and profound for both physical and mental/emotional/spiritual issues.

Don is an acupuncture physician and shiatsu therapist – he’s been studying Chinese medicine for over thirty years and is the co-founder of the Accunect healing system. His Hawaiian nickname is Ka’imiloa, which means seeker of truth and his students call him Dr Ka’imi. He now lives in London with his wife and co-founder Sarah Simonis and their son. In addition to shiatsu and acupuncture, Dr Ka’imi has studied many other modalities including Chinese herbs, cranial-sacral therapy and other manual therapies, applied kinesiology, Neurolink, and is a former senior instructor for the BodyTalk system.

Offering TWO free sessions with a New Zealand Accunect professional to be won in the free draw on the night!

A magnificent autumn day for our forage and kai cooker - urban hangi. Riki captivated us with his whale tooth flute while sharing stories of traditional Maori foods, cooking, and preservation methods.
We prepared blanched kawakawa & spinach puree which tasted delicious with our Pigeon Bay lamb, smoked and then steamed in the kai cooker.

Marlene prepared palusami with taro land coconut cream and a little chili and Celia enjoyed preparing a kimchi vinaigrette to coat the balls of fresh watermelon, with a crumble of feta. Light, spicy and delicious.
