ANZAC Day holds a sacred place on Wadjemup Rottnest Island, a site rich with military history and heritage. At Programmed, we understand the significance of this special day as our team recently joined the solemn dusk service to pay homage to all who have bravely served and continue to serve our nation.
Wadjemup Rottnest Island's pivotal role in both the First and Second World Wars is a testament to its historical importance. As we gathered for the ceremony, we were reminded of the Island's profound connection to Australia's military past. For many families, including those within our own team, this connection runs deep, with ancestors who once served on these very shores during times of conflict.
The ceremony itself was a poignant tribute, with navy personnel standing resolute as the haunting notes of the horn echoed across the Island. It was a moment to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who came before us, honouring both the living and the fallen.
At Programmed, we take great pride in our work on this magnificent heritage site. Wadjemup Rottnest Island is not just a place of natural beauty; it is a symbol of our nation's resilience and spirit. By commemorating occasions like Anzac Day, we reaffirm our commitment to honouring the past and preserving the legacy of those who have served.
