The Tongan community in Auckland gathered to commemorate Matala ANZAC, the very first Tongan ANZAC service in New Zealand.
Organiser Meleane Fatafehi Tu'akalau says many Tongans are out of touch with the history of ANZAC and she wants to change that.
"Our community does not really take much notice of ANZAC Day here in New Zealand. I wanted to create Matala ANZAC and run a civic service in our traditional way."
