Question of the Week?

November 12, 2015 by Maggi Barnard

What does Remembrance Day mean to you?

“It is a chance to reflect on the hardships faced by people during war time and to let everyone know they have not been forgotten. It is because of them that Australia is what it is today.” – Oliver Carlisle

“It is a chance to remember and pay respect to the men and women who died protecting our freedom and rights during the war.” – Susan Hodges

“It is one of the most significant days for all Australians. It gives us time to pause and recognise all of the people who were impacted by the war – not only soldiers but the families left behind. They all made sacrifices so we could enjoy the high quality of life today.” – Jacqueline Flannery
