Congratulations to Emily-Rose Lochore in Year 10 who has been selected to attend the Premier’s Anzac Student Tour to Vietnam!
Ten student ambassadors will represent Western Australia on the Premier’s Anzac Student Tour.
In 2019, the Premier’s Anzac Student Tour will travel to Vietnam to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Binh Ba. Between 1962 and 1972 almost 60 000 Australians served in the Vietnam War; 521 died and over 3000 were wounded.
Students will visit important historical sites including Hoi An, Vung Tau and Long Tan, before attending Anzac Day commemorations in Hanoi.
On their return, students will continue their commitment to share the Anzac legacy in their schools and communities. The tour is part of the commitment by schools to enshrine Anzac Day as a day of importance to all students.
