Learning from home

For students, teachers and homeschooling parents, the Memorial’s Classroom Resources website has many educational activities to keep everyone busy.

You’ll find instructions on how to make a paper poppy and a memorial wreath, as well as some colouring in sheets that’ll bring the Anzac story to life.

While the Memorial isn’t open to visit for schools and families, there are still opportunities to explore online tour options. They include Tiny Tours – short films for early learners that encompass a tour and craft activity; Virtually There – thirty-minute films that encourage primary and secondary students to explore the Australian War Memorial and its collection.

These books are made available to download free of charge for classroom and educational use.

You might be in lockdown at home, but you can still enjoy time with friends and family. Jump on a video call and play the Anzac Day quiz or set up your own game of virtual two-up.
