2026 Premier's Anzac Student Tour

Accompanied by 3 teachers, the group of 10 students will depart for the 10-day tour in the April school holidays.

The unique 2026 program gives students an opportunity to investigate the Anzac legacy and those who served in the armed forces in all wars. They will commemorate the 81st anniversary of the end of World War ll, the 84th anniversary of the bombing of Darwin and the 84th anniversary of the fall of Singapore.

This annual competition is open to all Western Australian students in Years 8 to 11. Students from public and non-government schools can submit their entries for the chance to be selected as ambassadors for the tour.

Students are selected following a written submission and interviews, demonstrating their interest in Australian history and an understanding of the Anzac legacy.

Since 2004, 266 students have been chosen for tours to Belgium, England, France, Greece, Malaysia, Singapore, Turkey, Vietnam, Japan and around Australia to commemorate the service and sacrifice of Anzac service men and women.
