Anzac scholarship opportunity
Mr Bull said, "The best thing is, you can be as creative as you'd like in preparing your submission. You can choose to provide a written piece, produce digital content, or use your artistic talent - the choice is yours. Selected students will be afforded a trip of a lifetime, where they will travel to learn first-hand the Anzac tradition that will deepen their understanding and appreciation of our war history, by walking in the footsteps of our soldiers."
"This scholarship is designed to engage with middle and senior school students to explore our incredible Anzac legacy, with the aim to strengthen intergenerational Australian (Anzac) connections with Turkiye. Personally, I have visited the battlefields of Gallipoli and viewed the Peninsula where approximately 16,000 brave Anzac soldiers landed on April 25, 1915."
"This sacred place is etched in Australian history which has shaped our future and independence, and is a place once visited, you will never forget," he said. For students interested in participating in the Spirit of Anzac Prize, applications must be submitted before Wednesday September 6, 2023.
