Tim Bull encourages Victorian students in Years 9-12 to apply for the Spirit of the Anzac Prize's Gallipoli study tour, deepening understanding of the Anzac spirit through visits to historic wartime sites.
Gippsland students have a unique opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Anzac spirit through the Spirit of the Anzac Prize. Shadow Minister for Veterans and State Member for Gippsland East, Tim Bull, is encouraging students in Years nine to 12 to consider applying for this opportunity, which will see twelve students selected statewide to undergo a fully funded study tour to sites of wartime significance in Gallipoli, Turkiye.
Tim Bull encourages Year 9 - 12 students to apply for a fully funded Gallipoli tour exploring Anzac history, courage, sacrifice, and legacy through the bipartisan-supported Spirit of the Anzac Prize
Legacy through learning
Mr Bull said, "It is a program that has had support from both sides of politics for over 20 years. This tour is more than just a history lesson. It's an opportunity for young Victorians to walk in the footsteps of those who served, to gain a deeper appreciation of their courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy."
Over 11 days, students will visit key battlegrounds and memorials, commemorating those who made the ultimate sacrifice while exploring Australia's military and peacekeeping history. As part of the selection process, students will share their reflections on military history, personal connections, and the significance of the Anzac legacy in today's world.
"I am always inspired by the passion young people have for learning about our military history. It is vital that future generations understand that the freedoms we enjoy today were hard-won by those courageous men and women who served before us," Mr Bull said. Applications open on 28 April 2025 and for more information, visit Victorian State Government website.
