ANZAC

Ninety six years ago, on 25th April,1915, soldiers from the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) landed on the beach at Gallipoli in Turkey. They were defeated but they hung on, obeying orders; and showing the true grit and mateship for which our nation is reknown.

Today we commemorate them and all Australian and New Zealand men and women who gave their lives serving our country.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.
Lest we forget.

  1. We are so prone to forget; memorial days are therefore, so important!
