Lest We Forget

Remembrance Day is a national day where Australians dedicate time to remember those who have fought and died for us in wars and conflicts. Remembrance Day is held on  the 11th of November. It marks the armistice that occurred in WW1 which took place on the 11th month, 11th day, and 11th hour of the year, when we will again take one minute to commemorate those who gave their lives for our country. 

To commemorate this special event, we walked up to the Lane Cove plaza and had a minute of silence after we placed a wreath it in front of the Remembrance Day memorial. This day is very special to our country and all Australians should partake in this ceremony. Due to COVID-19 we cannot take part in the ceremonies so we will take a minute of silence during our classes.
