My ANZAC questions

For my home learning I had to answer some questions about ANZAC day and these are my answers

1. Why do ANZAC Day ceremonies in New Zealand happen at dawn?
  • Dawn ceremonies are held at the same time and on the same date that ANZAC troops first landed at Gallipoli during world war 1
2. Where is Gallipoli?
  • Gallipoli is at the south-western end of Turkey
3. What do the letters ANZAC stand for?
  • The ANZAC letters stand for:
    •  A- Australia
    •  NZ- New Zealand 
    •  A- Army
    •  C- Corps  
4. Why is what happened at Gallipoli on the 25th of April special to us as New Zealanders?
  • Because it was where lots of New Zealand and Australian soldiers were led to their death because of an epic fail by British Commanders.
