Remembrance Day Liturgy

Our Remembrance Day Liturgy celebrated by Fr. Dan MGL, led by Miss Breena Walshe and her class (1/2 Gold) was very much a family affair. Australian Army AHQ Armoured Asset Manager Scott Gill, and his daughter Rose (5/6 Gold) read the Ode of Remembrance; Royal Australian Navy Petty Officer Andrew Jones, and his son Oliver (3/4 Gold) read “In Flanders Fields” poem; Mrs. Anne Zarb (Ms. Wright’s mother) whose great-grandfather served in WWI & grandfather in WWII, led students, many of whom were siblings, in the laying of the wreath and ‘poppy’ crosses. We were fortunate to have parents join our school community for this special Liturgy.  So to, we had four personnel from the Royal Australian Air Force attend. Indigenous Liaison Officer, Flight Lieutenant Grace Casey-Maughan, delivered the Commemorative Address and bugler, Pilot Officer Liam Bone played the Last Post and Rouse.  The liturgy provided a meaningful opportunity for us to remember all those who had lost their lives in war and to pray for our school’s Defence families.    We will remember them.

God Bless
