On 5 April 2023, eight SHC students journeyed to the The Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne for Legacy's 91st annual ANZAC Commemoration Ceremony for students. This day grants an opportunity for students to acknowledge and pay respect to those who have passed during the wars that Australia has been involved in, especially WW1, WW2 and Vietnam.
Accompanied by Mr Tracey, Mr Haitas and Ms Di Giandomenico, the students attended the Legacy ceremony, laid a wreath and then explored the Shrine. It was a great day to enable younger students to learn about the conditions and experiences that the soldiers endured and encouraged our younger students to consider becoming a Shrine Young Ambassador. It was wonderful to have the new Year Sevens and Eights show an interest and be so keen to learn more about the Shrine.
In all, the day was a great experience which I was proud to be involved in and I offer a big thank you to Mr Tracey for planning the day.
