Dear {#party.Informal},
Term 1 is now behind us, and we are gearing up for Term 2.
I hope you found some time during these school holidays to unwind and regroup. The sheer breadth of experiences you’ve helped provide girls and young women across our state and territories is remarkable! It’s the result of your time, effort and genuine care that our movement continues to have an enormous impact on our world.

A Day of Remembrance
|
|
|
ANZAC Day is 25 April. For the past two years, ANZAC Day ceremonies have been held virtually. This year, we can now gather in-person, at dawn, to remember those who served.
Please consider attending a local service to mark the occasion.
For decades, these services have acted as a symbol of remembrance and appreciation for all those who served. |
|
Share your ANZAC Day activities with us! |
|
Send photos of any activities to [email protected]. We’d love to share them to our networks.
