We remembered our Anzacs

Scouts Zeni, James and Alfie (pictured) were among those who paid their respects to our fallen Diggers on Anzac Day.

Ocean Grove Barwon Heads RSL sub-branch held a dawn service and a march and mid-morning service at Ocean Grove Park.

The march and service was attended by hundreds who turned out to pay their respects.

One attendee, 100-year-old WWII veteran Roy Porter, was there and was recognised for his service and for his birthday milestone.

Community members and organisations laid wreaths at the cenotaph during the morning service.

Services across the Bellarine Peninsula were held in Drysdale, Barwon Heads, Portarlington, St Leonards, Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale.

It was 110 years ago (1915) that our brave ANZAC sons landed at Gallipoli in an event that has gone onto shape Australia and its people.
