Join us for a meaningful morning of remembrance as we mark 80th Anniversary of the End of WWII in the Pacific—a pivotal moment in global history that brought closure to one of the most devastating conflicts the world has known.
This special event will include:
✨ Commemorative Display
Explore a curated exhibition highlighting the final months of the war in the Pacific, personal stories and memorabilia from local veterans and families, and archival photographs and historical insights into the events leading to Japan’s surrender.
🌺 Poppy Cascade Reveal
Be present for the unveiling of our handcrafted Poppy Cascade, a powerful visual tribute created with community contributions to honour those who served and those who never returned.
📖 Storytelling & Reflections
Hear moving accounts from descendants reflecting on the experience of soldiers and civilians.
We will be providing a sausage sizzle lunch afterwards. All are welcome to attend this tribute to peace and remembrance. Please RSVP by August 8th for catering purposes.
