2020 Anzac Day Schools' Award Winners

Earlier this year, St Clare's entered the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (DVA) Anzac Day Schools' Awards. This is a national competition to honour Australia’s wartime history. In 2020, the awards theme was the Second World War. Our team focused on a number of Canberra women who contributed to the WWII effort.

Last week, the Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Darren Chester, announced the winners at National, State/Territory level and some specialist categories. Mr Chester said, “The Anzac Day Schools’ Awards is a national competition that recognises the creative and engaging work of primary and secondary students, teachers and schools when learning about our military history, with this year’s theme being the Second World War. This year we commemorated 75 years since the end of the Second World War and saw a diverse and wide-ranging approach to learning about the war with some schools extending their learning beyond the classroom. Congratulations to the schools that entered this year, and to the winning schools. Thank you for your work in educating the next generation about our military history.” I am extremely pleased to say St Clare's College was announced as the ACT State/Territory Award winner so will receive the Award and Prize Money.

Well done again to Erin Burke (Year 12), Grace McCarter and Lara Robertson (Year 11), and Charlotte Walsh (Yaer 10) who volunteered to work with me in their own time to put together the St Clare’s submission. Great effort!
