Side by side we gathered as a College and community to commemorate Anzac Day, pay our respects and remember the sacrifices made by all servicemen and women, past and present.
On Wednesday 17 April 2024 we held our annual Anzac Day Ceremony and Assembly in Va Pasifika.
A Catafalque Party made up of eight students from the Army and Air Force Cadets played an integral role. They stood guard during the Ceremony and laid a wreath at the flagpole in Claver Court in remembrance of the fallen. They did so with pride, respect and honour.
Musical tributes were performed by our College Concert Band and Choir, conducted by Music teacher Sally Linneman Grennan. Lily Coy also performed the Last Post and Reveille on the trumpet.
Defence School Mentor Sheree Webb said the commemoration was a credit to the College and students involved.
“Our students' willingness and enthusiasm to honour our armed forces, both past and present, fills me with gratitude. It tells me that the legacy of the ANZACs will never be forgotten," she said.
All photos from the Anzac Day Ceremony can be found in the '2024 Anzac Day Assembly' folder under the 'Photos' tab on the Parent Portal.
