Honouring Our Heroes: ANZAC Day & Remembrance Day

Across Australia and New Zealand, ANZAC Day (April 25) and Remembrance Day (November 11) are solemn occasions that honour the brave men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. Whether displayed at homes, schools, RSLs, businesses, or community events, flags, banners, and commemorative signage are powerful symbols of respect. The Lest We Forget Flag, alongside the Australian and New Zealand national flags, plays an essential role in these tributes.

The Meaning Behind ANZAC Day & Remembrance Day

ANZAC Day commemorates the Gallipoli landings in 1915, a defining moment in Australian and New Zealand history. It recognises the courage, mateship, and sacrifice of those who served in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping missions. Dawn services, marches, and flag displays remain integral to this national day of reflection.

Remembrance Day, observed on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, marks the end of World War I in 1918. It is a time for silence and reflection to honour those who have given their lives in service.

The Poppy – A Symbol of Sacrifice

The red poppy has become a widely recognised symbol of remembrance, inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields.” The poppy represents the bloodshed on the battlefield and the resilience of those who fought. It stands as a reminder that freedom is not without cost, and it’s crucial to keep the memories of the fallen alive.

The Lest We Forget Flag

Our Lest We Forget Flag prominently features the iconic red poppy, making it a fitting tribute for any home, business, or public space during Remembrance Day. Its clear, bold design resonates with respect and solemnity, providing an elegant way to express gratitude for the sacrifices made by past generations.

  • Material: Made from durable Trilobal material, this flag is designed to withstand the outdoor elements, making it perfect for both indoor and outdoor use.
  • Size: The flag measures 1800 x 900 mm, large enough to be visible from afar but versatile enough for various display settings.
  • Mounting: Equipped with nylon sister clips for easy attachment to flagpoles.
