Our staff gathered to commemorate Anzac Day and honour the brave men and women who have served our countries. We pay tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and safety. Our memorial flagpole and plaque remind us of the pilots of the aircraft which disintegrated over our school site on 2 May 1945 during an air test flight. Let us never forget their courage and selflessness. Lest we forget.
