10 students from nine different schools will share in memorable history lessons as part of the 2022 Premier’s Anzac Student Tour.
The group will depart for Albany on April 16 and return from Darwin on April 26 in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the bombing of Darwin. They will be accompanied by three teachers.
Students will embark on a unique experience as they investigate the Anzac legacy in the context of nation building between the wars and explore defence of the home front during World War II.
The Premier’s Anzac Student Tour is an annual competition open to all Western Australian students in Years 8 to 11 who are selected following a written submission and interviews.
Next year brings the number of students who have travelled on the tour to 226.

As stated by Education and Training Minister Sue Ellery:
“The Premier’s Anzac Student Tour provides a significant opportunity for young people to commemorate the service and sacrifice of ANZAC service men and women.
“It is great to see that more students are keen to take part in the tour each year and learn about Australia’s military history.
“I’m sure these 10 students will have some incredible experiences with their classmates that they can share with their schools and communities.”
