This is my Keynote about Anzac Day

1. 25 April
Lest we forget

2. What is Anzac day
Anzac Day occurs on 25 April every year.
It commemorates all New Zealand and
Australian soldiers killed in war. ANZAC
day also honours returned servicemen and
women that survived the war.

3. The Landing
The date marks the
anniversary of the landing of
New Zealand and Australian
soldiers on the Gallipoli
Peninsula in 1916. Lots of
soldiers did not even make it
out of the boats.

4. The Red Poppy
The red Poppy has become the
symbol of war remembrance.
People in many countries wear
the poppy who died in war and
also for the people that still
serve. NewZealand & Australia
pin poppies into their tshirt and
wear them for around a week.

5. The red Poppy
The red Poppy (or Flanders poppy) has
linked with battle field deaths since the time
of the the war . The plant was one of the
first to grow and bloom in the mud in the
Flanders field

6. Ceremony
DAWN SERVICES
Every year on the 25 April
the day begins with a march
by a service before the
dawn to the local war
memorial. Military
personnel and returned
servicemen and women
form up the memorial joined
by members of the
community.
