What is ANZAC Day?
Anzac Day for Australians and New Zealand citizens is a very important day.
Anzac Day is a very special day of remembrance on aged care calendars in Australia and New Zealand - ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps.
On the 25th of April 1915, Australian and New Zealand soldiers banned together and landed at Gallipoli to fight the Turks, many soldiers died there and they were known as the Anzacs.
How we honour ANZAC day
Anzac Day is honoured with a dawn service as the sun is coming up, many RSL groups or war memorials hold Anzac Day services at dawn.
Some of the low care residents might be picked up and taken to these morning services especially if they have served in the military, RSL or their family members might offer to drive residents to these services.
Some schools will hold services before Anzac Day and it is nice to take some residents to the schools dressed up and wearing their military medals, the children and teachers really enjoy having them attend.
