ANZAC DAY BY F I N N

ANZAC OBELISK

In 1916 the children of our school built a monument

to respect the soilders that died in the war and went

to this school. The government decided that your

not allowed to build a monument because it

reminded the people the horrors of war.

BATTLE OF GALLIPOLI

When Turkey entered the war on Germany side the

Anzacs thought to take the Turkish by surprise and

take the capital of Istanbul to keep supply routes

through the black sea to Russia but the Turkish took

the Anzacs by surprise and it was a horrible battle.

ANZACS

The Anzac word stands for Australian and New Zealand

Army Corps. The Anzacs fought in two very horrible

battles. The battle of lone pine and Gallipoli.

LONE PINE

The battle of lone pine was originally intended as a diversion

from attempts by New Zealand and Australian units to force a

breakout from the ANZAC perimeter on the heights of Cunuk

Bair and Hill 971. There was over 2,000 Australian Casualties.

RESPECT SOILDERS

Remember to respect the Anzacs that died for our

School and Australia. Never disrespect the

Monument in our School because of the soilders

that died in the war.

THANK YOU FOR LISTENING
