​ANZAC Day Commemoration Assembly
On Wednesday, our Year 5-10 students and staff gathered in
the Savio Centre to commemorate ANZAC Day which took
place last Monday during the term break. I would like to
firstly extend my thanks to all students, families and staff who
represented our College at the Glenorchy, Lenah Valley, New
Norfolk, Brighton, and Hobart Services last week.
Our assembly on Wednesday was respectfully led by many
students and it was particularly moving to hear our Year 9
students reflect on what they had been learning about war in
History last term. Several students shared their views on what
ANZAC Day means to them and why it is especially important
for us to continue to hold this tradition in memory of those
who have fought for our country and for the freedoms of other
nations. Our choir and concert band did a stellar job too, and
my thanks to all students and staff involved in preparing this
important assembly for us.
Let us continue to be people who work for peace in our world
and pray for those in our world who are currently experiencing
war in their countries and who do not have the freedoms and
opportunities that we are so lucky to have in Australia due
to the courage and sacrifice of our veterans in the many wars
they have been involved in. Lest we forget.
