ANZAC Day at ECC

At the beginning of the term, our school community came together to honour the bravery, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of the ANZACs. The occasion was marked by a solemn and meaningful ANZAC Assembly that invited reflection, reverence, and unity across all year levels.

The assembly began with a respectful welcome, setting the tone for a deeply moving morning. A thought-provoking drama performance poignantly captured the emotional toll of war, helping students connect with the lived experiences of soldiers and their families.

This was followed by a powerful dance piece that expressed the solemnity and quiet strength of remembrance through movement, reminding us that honouring the fallen can take many heartfelt forms. The assembly concluded with a worship segment that brought our community together in prayer and reflection, encouraging all present to consider the values of courage, mateship, and sacrifice that define the ANZAC spirit.

Our Year 12 leaders played a central role in the service, demonstrating maturity and respect as they led key parts of the ceremony. With great dignity, they acknowledged the national flag, laid a commemorative wreath, and delivered the Ode of Remembrance with heartfelt sincerity. Their leadership helped set a meaningful example for younger students, showing how tradition and gratitude can be passed on with reverence and pride.

As a school, we are proud to uphold the tradition of commemorating ANZAC Day and teaching our students the importance of remembering those who served and continue to serve. Lest we forget.
