ANZAC Day

Mana Media —

On Wednesday 25th April our Senior Student Leaders participated in the ANZAC Day formalities in Foxton.

These began with the Dawn Service at the Cenotaph. Arts Captain Sonya Enoka and Deputy Arts Captain Justin Jurgens were the flag bearers for the RSA and lead the march from the club rooms to the Cenotaph.

International Captain Leighton Briggs and Deputy Head Student Paora Tamihana recited The Ode in English and Maori. This service was followed by breakfast at the Foxton RSA.

There was also a Civic Service held in the College Hall at 9am where our students introduced the poems and gave a background to the poppy emblem. They also recited 'In Flanders Fields' and 'We Shall Keep The Faith'.

Sports Captain's Tayla Kuiti and Connor Thwaites headed the march to the Cenotaph as flag bearers and Myellah and Massey Harvey laid wreaths in remembrance. Pachience Fenn and Justin Jurgens read The Roll of Honour.
