Commemorating ANZAC Day

ANZAC Day Services will be like no other this year, with people remembering the fallen soldiers and honouring the returned servicemen and women at home, in their bubble. Adam Salisbury, of Room 9, has made a list of ways you can commemorate this important day while in lockdown.

• Make a white cross out of cardboard with a soldier's name and put it next to your letterbox.

• Play the last post very loud in your neighbourhood to make it look like you can play it on the trumpet. Or play the trumpet if you can.

• Bake homemade ANZAC biscuits for the family and or neighbours.

• Release a bunch of red poppies or flowers into the sky on a very windy day. To blow around the place.

• ANZAC concert in the backyard with lots of soldier songs.

• Making a wreath out of egg cartons and adding to your letter box or your front door.

• Use a milk bottle to cut the top off. Decorate with images of remembrance. Fill halfway with stones or sand and put a candle in it, if you have one.
