All ages acknowledge Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day events involved all age groups across the Peninsula last Thursday.
A well-attended service at the Vietnam Veterans' memorial on the Ettalong foreshore was held by the Central Coast branch of the Vietnam Veterans Peacekeepers and Peacemakers Association of Australia, despite windy conditions and misty rain.
The WoyWoy, Ettalong, Hardys Bay RSL Sub Branch held a "small service" at the Ettalong Diggers Club.
The inclement weather brought about a late change of location, which was originally scheduled at Memorial Park in Woy Woy.
Students at Brisbane Water Secondary College Woy Woy campus acknowledged Remembrance Day with an online Zoom presentation.
Umina Beach Public School students paid respect to fallen soldiers in outdoor Remembrance Day ceremonies in cohort groups.
At Booker Bay Preschool, the children made poppies to create a Remembrance Day display on the front fence for the community.
