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

Every year, Australia remembers the brave people who have fought to keep our country safe and free. On 25 April, we commemorate Anzac Day, and on 11 November, we observe Remembrance Day. These significant days of commemoration remind us of the Anzac spirit and the importance of honouring those who have sacrificed so much for our way of life.

Australia Remembers offers a vivid and engaging exploration of the origins and traditions of Anzac Day, Remembrance Day and war memorials, delving into their deep connections and significance for young Australians today. With colourful descriptions and accessible language, Australia Remembers: Anzac Day, Remembrance Day and War Memorials ensures that the next generation understands and honours the history and traditions of these pivotal occasions in our national story.
