Anzac Day 2020

How You Can Commemorate ANZAC Day 2020

Saturday 25^th April

There’s no doubt that ANZAC Day 2020 will be very different to ANZAC Days of previous years. While we will not be gathering at services or marches, there are still ways to acknowledge ANZAC Day and ensure Australian servicemen and women are appropriately remembered.

The following website has been developed in consultation with Thornton Public School’s Defence School Mentor and Staff. https://sites.google.com/education.nsw.gov.au/tpsanzacday2020/home

The below information has been recommended by RSL NSW to commemorate ANZAC Day 2020. For further information you can head over to their site at  https://www.rslnsw.org.au/anzac-spirit/

Light up the dawn. At 6am on ANZAC Day, go to the end of your driveway or stand on your balcony and listen to a brief commemorative service. Together – even while apart – we’ll remember those who served and sacrificed.

Tune into live services and virtual commemorative services. The ABC will be broadcasting a 5.30am service from the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. There will also be a 10am service from the Anzac Memorial in Sydney that will be broadcast on ABC and streamed live.

 Record yourself reciting the ode or sharing a message of support for veterans.

You can then log in to https://www.rslnsw.org.au/anzac-spirit/

Respond “Going” to our ANZAC Day 2020 Facebook event. Then use the hashtag #ANZACSpirit and share how you’ll be commemorating privately, as well as who you’ll be remembering this ANZAC Day.
