In true New Zealand culture, students from various schools in Christchurch performed the haka to pay tribute to the victims of the city's mosque attack.

Last week more than 50 people died after a man stormed into two mosques in Christchurch and shot about 70 people.

Emergency visas for families of the victims have been granted as additional resources have been brought in to help with funeral preparations.

Prime Minister Jacinda Arden said she would never say the killer's name, instead calling on the country to remember the names of the victims.
