ANZAC Day 2019

Mana Media —

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

This began with the Dawn Service at the Cenotaph.  Head Student, Tabitha Anderson and Arts Captain, Isaac Laracy were the flag bearers for the RSA and lead the march from the club rooms to the Cenotaph.  Isaac 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 student leaders gave a background to the poppy emblem  and recited the poems, 'In Flanders Fields' and 'We Shall Keep The Faith', as well as messages from the Governor-General of New Zealand and the Right Honourable Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand.  

Sports Captain, Ed Winiana and Isaac Laracy headed the march to the Cenotaph as flag bearers and Massie Harvey and Saryah Chambers laid wreaths in remembrance.  Jene Tait and Ed Winiana read The Roll of Honour.
