On 25 April, we commemorated Anzac Day with Wesley College staff and students participating in special ANZAC assemblies this week. Wesley staff and students also continued our partnerships by marching with or representing the Odd Bods, Flying Catalinas and the 37th Battalion AIF in Anzac Day marches and commemorative services.
The significance of Anzac Day in connection with Wesley College was remembered through school assemblies as we paid tribute to past students who contributed to the war effort and made the ultimate sacrifice.
