Held “at the going down of the sun”, Lest We Forget commemorates through music, poetry, reflection and ceremony all those who have lost their lives in service for our country, as well as returned and current servicemen and women. As an afternoon ceremony lasting approximately one hour, Lest We Forget is appropriately juxtaposed alongside the traditional Dawn Service and the ANZAC Day March.
The Tribute includes a Procession of Flags, the singing of the New Zealand and Australian National Anthems, music & poetry from World War I to today, The Ode, The Last Post, a minute’s silence and a time for reflection and prayer.
Throughout the Tribute, those in attendance had an opportunity to support the ongoing work of RSL and Legacy, the Tribute’s Charity Partners.
