Thank you to everyone who made our Kew ANZAC Day Dawn Service such a huge success. To the hundreds of locals who turned out - thank you.
To the band, you were brilliant. Thanks to Peter Fraser and John Stretch from East Melbourne/Tramways RSL and Gavan Fahey from the Kew RSL.
To all the Rotary volunteers who helped with the Gunfire Breakfast, and my staff, and the businesses who supported it, Coles, McDonalds and Toscano’s - thank you again.
To all the school children and Cubs who laid wreaths, congratulations and thank you.
Particular thanks to the Kew High School captains for their poem readings.
Special thanks to UK Consul General Steph Lysaght and Lt Col the Rev Cannon John Sanderson for their attendance too.
A wonderful community commemoration for the fallen and for our veterans, young and old, who turned out in such numbers this morning.
Lest We Forget.
