On 5/5/2023 our School Captains and Defence Captains from year six attended the Australian War Memorial to commemorate the Battle of the Coral Sea. The Battle of the Coral Sea, from 4 to 8 May 1942, was a major naval battle between the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) and naval and air forces of the United States and Australia. Taking place in the Pacific Theatre of World War II, the battle is significant as it was the world's first naval action in which the opposing fleets neither sighted nor fired upon one another, attacking over the horizon from aircraft carriers instead. In Defence club during the month of May we have been decorating crowns for the King's coronation and making Mother's Day craft. We also had fun playing outdoor games and beading.
