Lest We Forget
In the lead up to this Anzac weekend, the SCL team has been working near the Rissington soldier carving - a memorial carved from a 120-year-old redwood tree that once marked the turn-off to Soldiers Settlement Road.
The six-metre sculpture shows two soldiers standing back to back, a digger in a slouch hat facing Sydney and a Kiwi in a lemon-squeezer pointing towards Napier. Rissington has deep connections with the world wars, with many local young blokes signing up to fight and land allocated to returned soldiers.
As we pause to remember and honour our ANZACs tomorrow, we're grateful to be part of the communities they fought to protect. The work goes on, but this weekend we stop and remember.
