Ceremonial Flag Poles & FlagsPrint Page

They were commissioned on the 23rd April 2017 as part of the Centenary of ANZAC 2014 -2018 and the plaque was unveiled on Remembrance Day 2017.
The Centenary of Anzac 2014 to 2018 was an important period of national commemoration for Australia. Marking 100 years since our involvement in World War I, the Anzac Centenary was a time to honour the service and sacrifice of our original ANZACs, and the generations of Australian servicemen and women who have defended our values and freedoms, in wars, conflicts and peace operations throughout a Century of Service.
