Each year around Anzac Day, Hunter donates a book to add to the school’s library collection. Done as a special tribute in remembrance of his great-grandfather, Frank Maxwell Spackman, who served in WWII. This year’s book, The Lost Boys by Paul Byrnes, tells the stories of under-age Anzac soldiers who fought in the First World War (photo below).
Let us never take for granted the freedom we enjoy today, paid by the lives of many that went before us. Lest we forget.
