Anzac Day

Dawn Service Wanganui

Remember those who fought for our country and died.

It is held at dawn because that was the time when they stormed the beaches of Gallipoli.

12000 ANZAC men lost their lives for our country and 28000 were wounded.

ANZAC DAY WANGANUI

BANG BANG BANG!!!!!

The bagpipes started and Ronan’s Sea Cadet Parade started to march off.   Brandon marched up behind the parade.

Once we got to the top of the hill we all gathered round to remember those who fought for our country.

We lay wreaths at the Cenotaph as part of the service, then we go to the Memorial Hall for a rum and coffee before we departed.
