The first Dawn Service in Australia each year is held on tiny Norfolk Island – a territory sitting roughly halfway between Australia and New Zealand. It is a day steeped in tradition for the community of approximately 2,100 and is wholly coordinated by the local RSL sub-Branch. As in many communities, Norfolk Island’s Dawn Service begins early at 0510 hours, at Emily Bay. The service is held as the sun rises over the beach, where a lone Norfolk pine stands proudly in the distance.
