As we reflect on the 111th anniversary of the Gallipoli landings, we pay tribute to the courage and sacrifice of the ANZACs as well as those who have served our country more recently.
Our cadets were proud to represent our unit across multiple Anzac Day commemorations, standing alongside veterans, current serving personnel, and our wider community to honour those who served and sacrificed.
We supported the Nelson Dawn Service, as well as the later services at Marsden Valley, Nelson Cathedral, and Richmond. Our Cadets and Officers showing professionalism, respect, and commitment throughout the day. Anzac Day reminds us not only of the legacy of those who came before us, but also of the responsibility we carry to remember what they sacrificed for us.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
E kore rātou e kaumātuatia
Pēnei i a tātou kua mahue nei
E kore hoki rātou e ngoikore
Ahakoa pēhea i ngā āhuatanga o te wā
I te hekenga atu o te rā
Tae noa ki te aranga mai i te ata
Ka maumahara tonu tātou ki a rātou.
Well done to all of our cadets and everyone else who commemorated Anzac Day and everything it honours. The future is strong—built on respect for the past and service to others.
Lest we forget
