On the anniversary of the March 15 terror attacks in Christchurch, there are calls for work to continue towards a more united New Zealand.
It's five years today since 51 people were murdered at the Al Noor Mosque and the Linwood Islamic Centre in Christchurch. Sara Qasem, whose father died in the attack, joined Breakfast and Abdur Razzaq from the Federation of Islamic Associations.
Qasem told Breakfast this morning: "We're trying our best to move forward with our lives – which is very different from moving on – and to honour the legacy of the loved ones that we lost, and to also understand what positive impact we can have."
While Razaq said "It's also a day to remember the aroha the whole country showed and that we showed to the world."
