A letter from a Veteran - bring your kids to ANZAC Day!

It’s recently come to my attention that some parents although they would like to attend a dawn service, won't because of the likelihood that their little ones may make noise or fidget during the minutes silence and cause embarrassment or offend someone.

Let me tell you that as a returned service veteran and a soldier for over 40 years that when I close my eyes during that minutes silence it’s the cries of the little ones in the crowd that make it so special to me. It’s the reason why myself and so many of my fellow veterans & ultimately our fallen heroes gave their time, service & lives for. Their families. Their countrymen.

To not hear the babies/children’s voices and cries and the tutts from their mothers and fathers during this special occasion would not be, and never has been an offence to myself or anyone I know.

How will we Remember Them if the little ones aren’t there to carry the memory?

So, this ANZAC Day please bring your little ones.

Bring them so that they may see the men & woman with their fathers, mothers, uncles, aunties, brothers, sisters and even their own medals worn proudly on their chests. So that they hear the stories told of long ago battles & heroic deeds. So that they will remember and carry on their stories to their own children’s children.”

We will be joined by our young grandchildren this ANZAC Day commemorations… and we encourage you to bring your children also.

Let’s continue to educate our children about the importance of ANZAC Day by allowing them to be apart of the commemoration, because if they aren’t apart of the traditions, how will they understand the significance?

Tuesday 11/11, 105 year old WW2 Veteran Joffre Bell attended the Remembrance Day service held outside the Highfields Cultural Centre. This was made possible by staff from the Brownsholme Aged Care Facility at Highfields. Such a memorable moment for all.
The Senior Students from Mary Mackillop Catholic College led the morning service.
Thanks to all that attended and Sub Branch Members for your support.
