ANZAC Day
Despite wet weather over the school holiday break, McAuley College students and staff proudly participated in community ANZAC Day commemorations. Many students represented the college and local service and community organisations, demonstrating a strong commitment to honouring our veterans.Alongside these external engagements, McAuley College also hosted a special commemorative assembly. A highlight of the event was the ceremony led by Mrs McGowan's Year 11 Modern History class, who developed a moving tribute that resonated deeply with the student body.
During the assembly, Raimi Mortimer presented her insightful speech on the Battle of the Coral Sea, originally delivered at the Grafton sub-branch memorial on ANZAC Day. Raimi's well-researched presentation was a powerful reminder of how close the war came to Australia and showcased her dedication to honouring those who served.
We thank Mr Monford for his contributions in coordinating the event. At McAuley College, we emphasise the importance of instilling respect and gratitude for our veterans, and we are proud of our students' commitment to this tradition, ensuring it continues for years to come.
