Anzac Day is an annual holiday observed on April 25 in Australia and New Zealand to honour war veterans. The day marks the anniversary of the first significant military action by Australian and New Zealand soldiers in World War I on April 25, 1915. The following provides free Printables and Activities, Templates and Articles that will enable you to celebrate Anzac Day at your service and activities that can be implemented into the curriculum for children.

We, human beings always want our traditions, fact, stories, and sacrifices that lie behind the national day to pass on to our next generation. It is also important as without knowing the root of the culture and tradition, children will not be able to love their country in adulthood. Knowing about ANZAC Day, the real stories, heroism, and sacrifices will not let the Australian culture be lost rather hand it over to the future generation and will continue in this way.

Remembering Soldiers Cut and Paste is an activity that enables children to commemorate soldiers by cutting and pasting poppies around each silhouette image. 

This set can be laminated for longer lasting and used with playdough as well. 

ANZAC Day is commemorated on 25th April and is one of the most important national commemorative occasions in Australia, marking the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand armed forces during World War One. Learning about ANZAC Day helps young children to understand the life and times of Australia and its people. The ceremony and traditions are such an integral part of our culture that it gives us an opportunity to talk to children about the importance of ANZAC Day.
