This is my keynote on Anzac Day. Enjoy!

1. 'WE WILL REMEMBER THEM'
The 25th of April

2. Why do we celebrate Anzac Day?
• Anzac Day is celebrated on the 25th April every year.
• It is a commemoration for the New Zealanders and
Australians that were killed in war.
• The date is an anniversary of the day the New Zealanders
and Australian landed on the beach in Gallipoli,
Peninsula, 1915.

3. The Red Poppy
• The red poppy is now a symbol of
remberance.
• People in many countries wear red
poppies to symbolize the rememberance
of those who died.
• The first day the poppies went on sale
was the year after, the day before Anzac
day. Many poppies sold out.
• Exactly 245,059 small poppies were
sold, and 15,157 large. The poppy day
soon became very big.

4. The Landing
• When the ANZACS landed in
Gallipoli, they had been taken to the
wrong place.
• They landed on the beach instead of
where they were supposed to land.
• Therefore, the Turks were ready for
them.
• Many soldiers didn't make it off the
boats.

5. Poem:
Here is a poem written by Laurence Binyon:
For the Fallen
They shall not grow old, as we who are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

6. How many people were killed in
war?
• Hundereds and thousands of brave soldiers lost their
lives in this great war.
• Exactly 87,000 Turkish men,
• 44,000 men from the British Empire and France,
• 8,500 Australians, and 2,721 New Zealanders.
