On 25 April, Michelle Hendra (Year 12) represented Westlake Girls High School by providing musical service for The Poynton Retirement Village during their Anzac Service.
Michelle contributed to the solemnity of the occasion by performing piano renditions of the Australian and New Zealand National Anthems and accompanying the hymns throughout the ceremony. Joining her in this special tribute was her brother, James Hendra, an alumnus of Westlake Boys High School, who performed the Last Post and the Rouse on the trumpet.
Together, their music provided a deeply reflective atmosphere for the residents and guests as they gathered to honour the sacrifice and memory of those who served. This performance was a wonderful opportunity to extend Westlake music into the wider community, using musical talent to support local commemorative.
