It has been 110 years since beginning of the First World War shook the globe, sending young men and women from Australia and New Zealand to some of the most remote corners of the earth in defence of King and country.

While homegrown heroes served on many battlefields, the fateful events of April 25, 1915 have continued to shape the Australian and New Zealand conscious, which we continue to commemorate to this day.

As those who choose to honour and remember those heroes continue to come together once again this Anzac Day, find out what memorial services are taking place across the South Burnett region.
