Mid Morning Ceremony

Join the Highfields Community ANZAC Day Ceremony at the Cultural Centre.

The ANZAC Day Ceremony includes a march by Australian veterans of wars and peacekeeping deployments along with the Officers, Warrant Officers, Sailors, Soldiers, and Airmen and Airwomen of the Defence Force School of Signals - Electronic Warfare Wing.

25 April marks the anniversary of the Gallipoli landing. The Gallipoli campaign resulted in the deaths of over 8,000 Australians and in the creation of an enduring “ANZAC legend”, both powerful factors in Australia’s continuing remembrance of war.
