After missing Anzac Day services altogether in 2020, Stratford District Council is looking forward to commemorating the day with an extended dawn service on Sunday, April 25, 2021.
This year council has focused its activity on a single service on the morning of Anzac Day instead of the traditional two services.
When planning for the 2021 Anzac Day service, council worked with its Anzac Day partners on a memorial that will continue to deliver a meaningful ritual of remembrance for our district, while allowing room for any change in Covid-19 alert levels.
The dawn service will be held at the Cross of Sacrifice outside the War Memorial Centre, Miranda Street at 6am on Sunday.
This years' service will include an opportunity for Returned Servicemen and women, as well as members of the public to lay a wreath.
