We go to Rongatea its where all the armourers go and its at 10am, although if you are playing in the band Becks I might wander down and attend the Feilding one.

There have always been lots of children at the ones I've been to, used to go to Bulls.]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:51:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359848&title=anzac-day#359848 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : I always go to the dawn service...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359712&title=anzac-day#359712 Author: Jessica

I always go to the dawn service but I think this year will be the 10am one and hopefully next year the dawn service again. ]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 19:16:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359712&title=anzac-day#359712 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : This is Andrew and Josh&#039;s...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359711&title=anzac-day#359711 Author: mummy_becks

This is Andrew and Josh's first one (of many now), but when I have been at the dawn service in Feilding there have been heaps of preschoolers there and they have been really well behaved.

I was wondering about whether our girls would enjoy it. I've only ever been once but after the initial excitement, the speeches seem really long. Do other preschoolers enjoy it?]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 19:13:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359707&title=anzac-day#359707 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : I play in Feilding Brass, and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359697&title=anzac-day#359697 Author: mummy_becks

I play in Feilding Brass, and we do the dawn service in Feilding, the 9am service in Sanson and then 11.30 in Ashhurst. It is a long day be very well worth it.

I just saw on the news that some low life stole a whole heap of poppys as well as collectors badges and collection buckets.
That is just horrible. Makes me sick thinking how low someone could go.

I play in a brass band and we will be doing the dawn service at Waikumete Cemetary in West Auckland, and then a few later in the morning.

I love Anzac Day, especially the dawn parade (despite the early start). It's such a wonderful celebration and time for reflecting on our past as a nation. And the free feeds at the RSA are good too!]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 18:41:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359678&title=anzac-day#359678 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : I&#039;d love to but we live 50km...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359579&title=anzac-day#359579 Author: peanut butter

I'd love to but we live 50km from the service so thats a long way in the morning when you are already sleep deprived. I just hope there is a decent one locally.

I normally play the bagpipes in them. This year will be the first I am not. I even played last year 20odd weeks preggers!]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:43:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359579&title=anzac-day#359579 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : We&#039;ll be attending the 10am...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359575&title=anzac-day#359575 Author: arohanui

We'll be attending the 10am service this year. Growing up though my dad used to take us to the dawn service, it was always really exciting getting up early and seeing all the people marching. One year me and my dad marched in place of my Grandad, that was really cool.]]> Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:42:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359575&title=anzac-day#359575 <![CDATA[ANZAC Day : Does anyone else attend the dawn...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16462&PID=359570&title=anzac-day#359570 Author: mummy_becks

Does anyone else attend the dawn service??

This year I am taking the boys to the dawn service in Feilding and then depending on how good they are (nore how tired they are) they will come with me to the other services I have to play at.

This year Andrew is going to wear his Great Grandfathers (MIL's dad) medals.
