Anzac Day is our national day of remembrance, observed annually on April 25. The day commemorates those who died serving New Zealand during the war, and honours returned servicemen and women, past and present.
This day marks the anniversary of the landing of the ANZACs (the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey in 1915.
As a community, we honour the ANZAC values of courage, compassion, camaraderie and commitment.
