This Anzac Day, Cafs would like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to, and reflect on, the service and sacrifice of the many former residents of the Ballarat Orphanage who served in wars across the twentieth century.
We reflect on their courage and spirit which helped shape our nation into what it is today.
