Anzac

Snowy and Kahu take some time to reflect on the way that they've acknowledged ANZAC day in the past. The pair also indulge in a short grammar wananga about the use and variations of "wareware".

For Anzac this year, we read some old letters from our Māori soldiers, and reflect on the hardship and sacrifices they endured. We also spotlight some of the specifics of the language and grammar used at the time.
