ANZAC CEREMONY

On the last day of Term 2, we gathered as a College community to commemorate ANZAC Day, a day of remembrance, reflection and gratitude. On ANZAC Day we remember those who fell during conflict in all wars Australians have been involved in. We also remember those who suffered as prisoners of war and those who were killed in action. Our service men and women have left us a splendid heritage. May we and our successors prove worthy of their sacrifice.

We were fortunate enough to be joined by Major (retired) Ken Fitzgerald from Tumut. Major Fitzgerald served with distinction in the 1st/19th Battalion, Royal NSW Regiment, from 1983 until his retirement in 2016. We are grateful for him taking the time to address the College on this special occasion.

?They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn; At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them. ?
Our Primary leaders, Aflie Carney and Henry Piper attended the official ANZAC Day Ceremony in Richmond Park and presented a wreath on behalf of the College.
