ANZAC Day 2014
Lindfield Campus
On Monday, the 28th of April we held a special ANZAC Day ceremony as a school to commemorate this special event that fell during the holidays. The three school leaders and Mr Morphew ran the ceremony and Mr Morphew shared a story about a chaplain who was heavily involved in World War 1, looking after the soldiers. He demonstrated a lot of ‘courage’.
Reuben played the Last Post and the Rouse. The three school leaders placed a wreath at our school flag post. We did this to show our respect for all the people involved in wars in the past and today. The flag was raised to the top and lowered to half-mast until midday.
Lest We Forget

Stanmore Campus
On the 29th of April, I had the opportunity to take the train to Stanmore to represent our school at a special commemorative ANZAC day ceremony. On the day, together with the Wyvern House Captain, I met some special guests. My part in the ceremony was laying a wreath with the Wyvern House captain. During the ceremony there were marches, parades, speeches and, most importantly, the donation of a bugle set ashore in the first wave of the Gallipoli raid.
