Hundreds of people and some dogs attended the village's second service on Monday morning.

Friends of Wingecarribee Animal Shelter (FOWAS) members, accompanied by their canines, laid a wreath at the service.

This was done to remember and pay tribute to all of the animals that have lost their lives at war, both past and presented.

Students at Berrima Public School also played a large role in the main service on Anzac Day.

School captain Ava Howes read the poem In Flanders Fields, written by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae in 1915.

Fellow students Lily Moore and Sam Goulder raised the flags at the service.

Service emcee Lynn Watson praised the school's students for their good behaviour on Monday.

"Berrima Public School students have contributed wonderfully to our service this morning," she said.

Earlier in the day, hundreds of people gathered in Berrima for the village's Anzac Day dawn service.

A large contingent of Highlands residents and visitors gathered to pay their respects for those who have served their country.

This year's theme was "women in war" and the event paid tribute to late Sister Nellie Constance Morrice.

Sister Nellie, of Eling Forest, was awarded a Royal Red Cross for outstanding service to nursing in the Australian army.

The 2016 Berrima dawn service was led by emcee Lynn Watson with support from Geoff Webb.

Among the attendees were Moss Vale's Beverly and Haydn Filmer (eight).

Ms Filmer said she was proud to attend the service with her son and pay their respects together.
