Shapes, Arnott's biscuits and Aussie treats were packed up in boxes to be shipped off to give soldiers a taste of home. The initiative was done through Spring Kidz to educate the children on the efforts of the military. 

Corporal Grant Hibbins with the RAAF School of Administration and Logistics Training, who has served overseas himself, said getting these packages was like a little taste of home.

“It’s great for the kids to know what sacrifices the military makes to keep the country safe and the history of our country,” he said. 

“It’s great to get that care package, it’s a bit of a surprise and it’s good to get foods from home.”
