It offers an opportunity for the local community to come together on a regular basis, get physically active and enjoy the beautiful surrounds.

• Anzac Day Light up the Dawn

  At 6am on ANZAC Day, in streets around Australia, hundreds of thousands of Aussies joined together in a powerful show of solidarity.

  As the sun peeked above the horizon the country stood united – in uniforms or pyjamas, wearing medals, poppies or sprigs of rosemary – to let Australia’s veterans know that their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

  On behalf of Queensland’s Defence family, we thank you for lighting up the dawn this ANZAC Day.
