2026 Premier's Anzac Student Tour

Students will travel to Darwin and Singapore in April 2026.

Accompanied by 3 supervisors, 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, 276 students have been selected to tour and travel to Belgium, England, France, Greece, Malaysia, Singapore, Turkey, Vietnam, Japan and destinations across Australia to commemorate the service and sacrifice of Anzac men and women.
