A moving Dawn Service was held on Anzac Day at Rugby again this year with over 100 people attending.

Lt Angus Ricketts from HMAS Albatross lead the March.

He is in the Royal Australian Army Aviation Corp and whilst we all partook our special ANZAC coffee in the hall afterwards, he gave a very inspiring talk on what ANZAC Day represents to all Australians.

He is pictured here with family members.

General Manager Anthony O’Reilly also presented a wreath on behalf of Hilltops Council as did other members of the community.

It is truly a memorable experience.
