STUDENTS from 13 Upper Yarra schools came together at the Upper Yarra RSL on Wednesday 6 May for a combined Anzac Service.
The annual event is hosted by the RSL with students taking a leading role in presenting the service.
Senior vice-president of the Victorian RSL Rob Webster was among a number of official guests.
He said it was significant that the event brought the schools together each year.
“Very clearly they have each done work and research in their own schools, but this is where they get an overview,” he said.
Mr Webster said it provided a new generation with the information and opportunity to continue the Anzac tradition.
“They used to say ‘will they ever remember us’,” he said.
“We will remember them”.
