Paddlepops sticks were the currency - gambling cash on two-up is only legal on Anzac Day - as residents went head-to-head in the game popularised by Australia's diggers.

Activities officer Vanessa Warren said the game was one of the ways residents were commemorating Anzac Day this year.

"We raised money and bought a wreath [to be] laid at the Bilyara service. We also sold fabric poppies to raise money to buy special badges for our returned servicemen and women," Ms Warren said.

Money raised also went to purchasing the two-up kit.
