ANZAC Day commemorates all New Zealanders who served and dies in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations and honours returned servicemen and women. The date itself marks the anniversary of the landing of New Zealand and Australian soldiers – the Anzacs – on the Gallipoli Peninsula in 1915.
The University of Canterbury Students' Association welcomes everyone to their ANZAC Day Service at Matariki Quad, 10am, Wednesday 25 April.
All are welcome to attend.
This is an important occasion and an opportunity for students, staff and the wider community to come together.
