Friday 18th August saw a number of our students attend the annual Vietnam’s Veterans service at Weerona Park, representing St Joseph's School.

On Vietnam Veterans' Day, we pause and reflect on the bravery, teamwork and endurance that Australians displayed throughout the war.

We honour those veterans who:

• lost their lives during battle
• returned home wounded, ill or injured
• lost their lives in the years since they returned
• still carry the physical and emotional scars of their service

We also pause to reflect on the impact of service on veterans' families.

This is an important part of our continued recognition of those men and women
who have served our country in conflict and in the defence forces.
