early Anzac Day service at the school on Thursday. RSL Sub Branch Cobar
president Kain Neale was the guest speaker. Mr Neale said while Anzac Day each
year has a different theme, Anzac Day specifically commemorates the landing at
Gallipoli on April 25, 1915 by the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps where
they suffered great casualties. (Over 8,000 Australian soldiers were killed.) School
