  • Samai King Gifted and Talented Online Anzac Day: Why the Other Eight Months Deserve the Same Recognition As the Landing
    THE Simpson PRIZE A COMPETITION FOR YEAR 9 AND 10 STUDENTS 2016 Winner Western Australia Samai King Gifted and Talented Online Anzac Day: Why The Other Eight Months Deserve The Same Recognition As The Landing Samai King Gifted and Talented Online rom its early beginnings in 1916, Anzac Day and the associated Anzac legend have come to be an essential part of Australian culture. Our history of the Gallipoli campaign lacks a consensus view as there are many Fdifferent interpretations and accounts competing for our attention. By far the most well-known event of the Gallipoli campaign is the landing of the ANZAC forces on the 25th of April, 1915. Our celebration of, and obsession with, just one single day of the campaign is a disservice to the memory of the men and women who fought under the Anzac banner because it dismisses the complexity and drudgery of the Gallipoli campaign: the torturous trenches and the ever present fear of snipers. Our ‘Anzac’ soldier is a popularly acclaimed model of virtue, but is his legacy best represented by a single battle? Many events throughout the campaign are arguably more admirable than the well-lauded landing, for example the Battle for Lone Pine. Almost four times as many men died in the period of the Battle of Lone Pine than during the Landing. Statistics also document the surprisingly successful evacuation - they lost not even a single soldier to combat. We have become so enamored by the ‘Landing’ that it is now more celebrated and popular than Remembrance Day which commemorates the whole of the First World War in which Anzacs continued to serve.

  • Gallipoli Campaign
    tHe GaLlIpOlI CaMpAiGn The Gallipoli Campaign was an attack on the Gallipoli peninsula during World War I, between 25 April 1915 and 9 January 1916. The Gallipoli peninsula was an important tactical position during World War I. The British War Council suggested that Germany could be defeated by attacks on her allies, Austria, Hungary and Turkey. The Allied forces of the British Empire (including Australia and New Zealand) aimed to force a passage through the Dardanelles Strait and capture the Turkish capital, Constantinople. At dawn on 25 April 1915, Anzac assault troops landed north of Gaba Tepe, at what became known as Anzac Cove, while the British forces landed at Cape Helles on the Gallipoli Peninsula. The campaign was a brave but costly failure. By December 1915 plans were drawn up to evacuate the entire force from Gallipoli. On 19 and 20 December, the evacuation of over 142,000 men from Anzac Cove commenced and was completed three weeks later with minimal casualties. In total, the whole Gallipoli campaign caused 26,111 Australian casualties, including 8,141 deaths. Since 1916 the anniversary of the landings on 25 April has been commemorated as Anzac Day, becoming one of the most important national celebrations in Australia and New Zealand. tHe GaLlIpOlI CaMpAiGn The Gallipoli Campaign was an attack on the Gallipoli peninsula during World War I, between 25 April 1915 and 9 January 1916.

  • “Come on Lads”
    “COME ON LADS” ON “COME “COME ON LADS” Old Wesley Collegians and the Gallipoli Campaign Philip J Powell Philip J Powell FOREWORD Congratulations, Philip Powell, for producing this short history. It brings to life the experiences of many Old Boys who died at Gallipoli and some who survived, only to be fatally wounded in the trenches or no-man’s land of the western front. Wesley annually honoured these names, even after the Second World War was over. The silence in Adamson Hall as name after name was read aloud, almost like a slow drum beat, is still in the mind, some seventy or more years later. The messages written by these young men, or about them, are evocative. Even the more humdrum and everyday letters capture, above the noise and tension, the courage. It is as if the soldiers, though dead, are alive. Geoffrey Blainey AC (OW1947) Front cover image: Anzac Cove - 1915 Australian War Memorial P10505.001 First published March 2015.

  • The Long Road to Anzac Cove: Chronology Task Lesson
    LESSON TWO THE LONG ROAD TO ANZAC COVE: CHRONOLOGY TASK Visit https://www.vic.gov.au/ premiers-spirit-anzac-prize for further information 2 Lesson 2: The Long Road to Anzac Cove: Chronology Task The Long Road to Anzac Cove: Chronology Task The organising of dates and events into the order in which they occurred is called chronology. It is important to us as historians, as knowing when something happened can help us evaluate the significance, impact or outcome of a person, object or event. Chronology can also help us with our understanding of the reasons for historical continuity and change, and of cause and effect, so we can fully understand the context of an historical event, in this case the Gallipoli campaign. Task One: Flow Chart The statements below, which outline the ANZAC troops’ road to Gallipoli, are all jumbled. Using an online flowchart tool or pen and paper, create a flowchart that shows the events in the correct order. [Hint: You will need to read each statement carefully to be able to work out the correct order. Use the dates to help you and then you will need to infer the order by examining each statement logically. You have enough information on this page to work out the correct chronology.] 01 March 22 1915, the Gallipoli offensive is being planned. 02 When off duty, according to historian Charles Bean, ‘to many a young Australian [being in Cairo] seemed a place for unlimited holiday.’ 03 Troops disembarked in Alexandria on 3 December and proceeded to their camp in Cairo, near the Pyramids of Giza.

  • ANZAC Day Simon Moss What Are We Remembering?
    14 field report/issue ANZAC Day Simon Moss What are we remembering? As I flicked through media coverage of ANZAC Day from recent years, I felt proud to think of myself as an Australian. The pages and airwaves were filled with inspiring stories of bravery and courage from those who had offered themselves up for a greater cause, some paying the ultimate price. April 25, the anniversary of the ANZAC landing at Gallipoli, has come to be a day of commemoration and remembrance for those who fought and died for Australia. This year’, ANZAC Day stood to take on even more significance, with active troops stationed in Iraq, and the dawn of a new era following the passing away last year of the last ANZAC veteran. And so, early on a cool autumn morning, twenty thousand Melburnians gathered at the Shrine of Remembrance for the Dawn Service, myself amongst them. Scanning faces in the dim predawn light, I was taken aback to see how many young people, our age, who were at the service. And listening to the simple yet profound words of the service, I wondered, “Why is ANZAC day important? What are we remembering?” A simple answer came to mind - remembering those who died for their country. But that seemed too simple, these wars are long past. There had to be something more, something greater than the memory of single people, an idea that would span generations and bring people together. The ANZAC spirit. In context, the Anzac spirit emerges from a disastrous military campaign that started in a hail of bullets from above, as the troops were landed at the base of the cliffs of Ari Burnu, instead of the beaches to the south.
