At least 5000 turned up to honour Anzac war veterans throughout Northland and the organisers were particularly pleased with a huge turnout of primary school-aged children at all venues.
After missing out on last year s commemorations last year due to Covid-19, Northlanders flocked to their nearest centres on a crisp morning to say we will remember them and the theme for this year s Anzac Day was women in the military.
