The Aboriginal History Research Services (AHRS) at the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries has written a book that acknowledges the significant contribution of Western Australian Aboriginal people who volunteered to enlist in World War One. This book aims to increase public recognition of Aboriginal people in war service and Western Australian history and stories more broadly. There were many men who attempted to enlist, however, were rejected on grounds of 'not being of substantial European descent' or for medical reasons. Their stories need to be told and the numbers, officially recognised. Through in-depth analysis of historical records and genealogical research conducted since 2014, the AHRS has increased the official number from around 80 to 133 people.

Stories for Remembrance Day - Classroom Express - Fremantle Press. The Australian War Memorial website says that ‘The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month attained a special significance in the post-war years.
The moment when hostilities ceased on the Western Front became universally associated with the remembrance of those who had died in the war.’ Fremantle Press has published many titles highlighting the experiences and stories that have stemmed from World War I, and we believe making those stories accessible to many different age groups is an important part of remembrance. In 2018 we will commemorate 100 years since the end of World War I with the publication of In the Lamplight by Dianne Wolfer and Brian Simmonds. You can pre-order In the Lamplight using the Remembrance Day catalogue below (click on the image to download the catalogue), or keep scrolling for two free classroom activities for Remembrance Day. Its accompanying craft activity includes instructions on how to build your own periscope.
Remembrance Day & The Appeal. The moment in 1918 when hostilities ceased was originally named Armistice Day, becoming a time when allied nations honoured the brave sacrifices made by all who fought and lost their lives during the First World War.
At the end of the Second World War, the Australian and British governments renamed November 11 Remembrance Day to mark and remember all who have fallen in times of war. The ritual of observing one minute of silence was first proposed by Australian journalist Edward Honey in 1918 and continues to be universally practiced on Remembrance Day each year. Unlike ANZAC Day, Remembrance Day is not a public holiday in Australia but services are held at 11am at War Memorials and cenotaphs in suburbs and towns across the country. Traditionally, the Last Post is sounded by a bugler followed by one minute of silence. After the minute of silence, flags are raised from half mast to masthead as Rouse is played.
