Gathering to Remember ANZAC Day
April 30, 2019Today, we recall those who, in the tragedy of war gave their lives for Australia and those who died for the freedom of all people.
We remember those who found rest on the ridges of Gallipoli; those who rest in the cemeteries of the great wars; those who rest in the haze of desert and jungle; those who rest in the depths of the seas.
We remember those who have fallen in the defence of peace, on land, in the air and on the sea.
We remember each man, woman and child who has died so that the light of freedom, justice and humanity may continue to shine.
Today, as we remember, we ask God that our praise may be worthy of their sacrifice.
We Remember Them…
May 2, 2018Anzac Day, 25 April, is one of Australia’s most important national occasions. It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War.
Yesterday Duncraig held a Anzac Day Service on the Quad.
It was attended by the whole school.
“This is a day not of celebration but of national memory. It’s a day when we learn, and learn again, of the horror of purposeless war. It is a day for looking after your mates, cherishing your home, your neighbourhood and family. It’s a day for realising how rare this wonderful country of ours is and how precious it is.” – Unknown
