Your visual or graphic must clearly relate to ANZAC Day in some way. The conventions of a pamphlet should be observed: bold, clear title page or front cover; headings and short, simple messages; illustrations and graphics used to create a balanced design. //**Create a postcard from Gallipoli.**// (Each person in the group must produce their own postcard) The front of the postcard will show a monument, complete with an inscription that explains why Gallipoli is a place of significance for many people, a place worth making a pilgrimage to. On the reverse write a personal message explaining what ANZAC Day means to you.
