What is the significance of Anzac Day?

Level: Primary / Intermediate / Secondary

As this is a topic of special significance in New Zealand (we even have a national holiday to remember it), there is plenty of good information to be found on the net. We suggest using Google and narrowing the search down to just find websites which come from New Zealand. You can do this by typing in your search (we recommend just using ANZAC Day) and then clicking on the radio button pages from New Zealand before hitting the main search button.

Another great site to look at is the National Library's hot topic links for Anzac Day.

HOT TIP: Make sure you check out TKI and  New Zealand History Online resources as this is a great starting point for NZ topics! For younger students there's also some quick facts on the Christchurch City Libraries Kids Homework pages.
