Anzac Service at the Allora Cemetery In Remembrance of All Who Served

A small but moving commemorative service was conducted by the Salvation Army on Tuesday at the local cemetery.

Wreaths were laid, Hymns were sung and Marco recited a poem he’d written “Such is War”.

After the Ode, the Last Post and one minute’s silence the crowd dispersed to Herbert Street for the Parade.

Anzac Day Service Well Attended

On Tuesday Allora’s streets were lined with locals who wanted to show their appreciation and give thanks to our servicemen and women.

A group of current and ex-service personnel lead the Parade and were followed by school children and teachers from Allora P-10 State School and St Patrick’s School.

The Parade then moved onto the Allora Cenotaph where a large crowd had gathered for the Commemorative Service.
