Every year the Hon Michael McCormack MP, invites local school students from the Riverina area to participate in an ANZAC Day writing competition. We are delighted to announce that Jasper Rui in Year 3 has been announced as one of the 2023 winners. Jasper’s piece was titled ‘ANZAC Day’. Jasper will have his name, photo and a copy of his piece published in Mr McCormack’s special edition ANZAC brochure which will be released shortly. Jasper will also receive a prize for his winning entry and we look forward to presenting it to him. Congratulations Jasper!

Today is ANZAC day and we pray for those who sacrificed their lives for us.

The war was awful, why do we keep going to war instead of peace.

We represent people who died in the war with poppies.

All of us will honour those who fought for us in war.

We might have lost a million people but they will always be in our hearts.
