ANZAC ASSEMBLY

VOICE will be performing at the ANZAC Ceremony in full uniform. 

Although our ANZAC Ceremony will not include parents, and most students will stay indoors, the ceremony will still take place, with VOICE Senior Choir performing I Still Call Australia Home.  

The dress rehearsal was a success yesterday, and those students still organising the final parts of their uniform know what they have to do. 

Our bagpiper, Ian Young, will perform for us and ex-student Sotiris Katsaitis, currently from CSHS, will again play the Last Post.
