Merchant Navy Day Wreath Laying 2017
Sunday 3 September 2017, 02:00pm
Wreath Laying in the Sanctuary
Shrine Representative: TBA
The Merchant Navy is frequently
referred to as The Fourth Service
because without this civilian service no
country can hope to win a war. This is the
service that transports the troops, their
equipment and vehicles, their water food,
fuel and ammunition to where it is
needed. This vital service helps win wars. The almost total loss of the Japanese merchant ships to submarines,
mines and bombs substantially helped the Allies in their desperate struggle.
Ceremony: Battle for Australia 2017
Wednesday 6 September 2017, 11:00am
Wreath Laying on the Forecourt All school students welcome. Shrine Representative:
TBA
A commemoration to honour the courage, sacrifice and service of Australians and their Allies who repulsed
Japanese attacks on Australia, on the Kokoda Track, at Milne Bay, on the Coral Sea, and in other fiercely
fought actions during the perilous days of the Pacific War.

St. Anne’s Primary School
Tuesday 1st August
With Deb, our editor, we
presented certificates of
appreciation to a number of
primary and secondary schools for
their assistance and participation
with the recent ANZAC badge sales
and service. The appropriate
school representatives were
delighted with the certificates and
were sharing with the students.
We hope they will continue to be a
part of the ANZAC and
Remembrance Day Services, as
these students are tomorrows
adults.
