Between 22 and 27 April, five Knox Academy of Performing Arts (KAPA) trumpet players in Years 10 and 12, represented Knox Grammar School across 14 various community Anzac Day and Memorial Services.
This is a tremendous honour for trumpet players to ‘sound’ these demanding calls for such meaningful and prestigious commemorations, no matter how big or small each individual event is.
Overwhelmingly, the feedback from our venues, both long standing and new, was exceptionally positive once again for 2025: “We were truly honoured to have him join us for this years’ service; his performance was moving and made a lasting impact on our community.”
The following compiled messages of thanks from event organisers capture the honour and service our buglers bring to these events.
“He truly represented Knox with grace, integrity, and a level of maturity beyond his years. His performance of the bugle calls was not only flawless but deeply moving. He brought such a sense of reverence and sincerity to the occasion that it left a lasting impact on everyone present.”
“It is also incredibly commendable that he chose to give up part of his school holidays and take time out of his Year 12 studies to be with us for this meaningful occasion. That choice reflects not just his personal values but the ethos of Knox – Faith, Wisdom, Integrity, Compassion, Courage.”
“We really appreciate the support from Knox and look forward to future collaborations.”
We look forward to seeing and hearing Percy and Lucas perform their bugle calls once again at our Anzac Memorial Service on Sunday 18 May.

"When I think about my own time at Knox, I realise just how many different parts of this school have shaped me,” our 2026 School Captain Mani said, as he gave his final speech at the Valedictory Ceremony. “I came here as a Year 7 boy, I had absolutely no idea what the next six years would look like. I picked up a saxophone. I played football. I took up Cadets. I got involved in Social Justice and Service.
