Anzac Day 2024

24 April 2024 | Council News

We invite the community to join us on Thursday 25 April at 7.45am at Waverley Memorial Gardens, Waverley Park for our Anzac Day service.

The service is arranged by Waverley Council and Bondi Junction/Waverley RSL Sub-Branch.

All are invited to attend and place a wreath on our cenotaph.

Anzac Day is a day of remembrance of all Australians killed in military operations.

On the 25th of April 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers formed part of the allied expedition that set out to capture the Gallipoli peninsula. These became known as Anzacs and the pride they took in that name continues to this day.

More than 8000 Australian soldiers were killed in battle, including hundreds from the Waverley local government area.

Please join us on 25 April as we remember the fallen.
