The Premier's Anzac Prize provides the opportunity for high school students to experience the Anzac tradition first-hand and how the Anzac legacy relates to modern Australian life.
The annual Premier's Anzac Prize sends eight students and two teacher chaperones on a tour of important memorial sites in London and the Western Front battlefields in France and Belgium.
All eligible Queensland high school students in Years 8-11 can apply for travel the following year. Each state school or accredited non-state school may nominate up to two students.
