ANZAC Day is a day of remembrance that honours the memory of Australian & New Zealand Army Corp soldiers who fought and perished during the First World War. In addition, it serves as a day of reflection for all soldiers who have lost their lives fighting for their countries.
The day has been recognised with a National public holiday since 1927, and by the mid-1930’s the rituals we know today were well and truly established, including dawn services, marches, and two-up.

The phrase heard each and every year, ‘Lest We Forget’ is recited after the Ode of Remembrance, which is derived from the poem “For the Fallen”, written by Laurance Binyon. The poem reads – “They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.”

Join us this ANZAC Day for a meaningful day of remembrance and community.
