This grant is to enable local community-based commemorative projects and activities that commemorate the centenary of the end of the First World War. There is a particular emphasis on remembering 'Australian service men and women from all conflicts and celebrate a just and secure peace'. These funds will go towards materials needed for the College's community Remembrance Day ceremony on the 9 November 2018, such as producing  a commemorative booklet, plaque, planting an olive tree, material to make felt poppies and lights for our Gallipoli Centenary Garden.

Since March, the History Club members have been working each Friday lunchtime creating paper poppies and making signage with the names of significant battles. Students who have identified Anzac ancestors are working on writing their ancestor's biography which will be published in the commemorative booklet.

If you have any queries please contact Mrs Musico Rullo.
