About this episode

This episode marks ANZAC Day with a replay of a story about the significant campaign at Gallipoli in 1915.

This week on From The Vault, we’re marking ANZAC Day with a special replay of our Squiz Kids Shortcut to ANZAC Day. It’s a story that begins on the beaches of Gallipoli in 1915, when Australian and New Zealand soldiers landed in one of the most significant campaigns of the First World War… and one that didn’t go to plan. In this episode, we explore what happened on that day, why ANZAC Day became such an important moment in our history, and how the way we remember it has changed over time. Listen carefully — there’s a S’Quiz at the end!
