Remembrance Day

Hello Parents

My name is Sharayah, and I am one of the Liturgy Captains here at St. Leonard’s.

This past Tuesday, 11th November, we commemorated Remembrance Day, a special day where we remember the ANZACs and all those who have served Australia. 

During the past week, we have been selling ANZAC badges to honour those who fought for us, with all proceeds going to the RSL (Returned and Services League).

On Remembrance Day, do to the weather, we held a special "Prayer of the Air" liturgy via Google Meet. Our Year 6 leaders did an extraordinary job of presenting for the school. During the liturgy, we solemnly recited The Ode, played The Last Post, and observed a Minute of Silence.

To conclude the liturgy, we listened to the song, ‘Spirit of the ANZACs’ by Lee Kernaghan. We invite you to watch the official music video at home:

During this important time, let us continue to remember and honour the sacrifices of those who gave their lives for us. We are all profoundly grateful for their service and will never forget their honourable work.

Lest We Forget
