As we approach Anzac Day, it is important to take time to reflect, pray and pay tribute to those who lost their lives and served in the battles and conflicts encompassed by World War 1 and those that followed.

Many schools are this week holding Anzac commemorations to both honour those who served and instil in students an understanding of the history and meaning of Anzac Day.

It is another sign of our school communities returning to normal after the disruption to last year’s commemorations which, nevertheless, resulted in some unique and innovative tributes.
