The 2021 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize awardees with The Honourable Steven Marshall MP Premier of South Australia at the award ceremony on 3 September, 2021.

The newly selected 2021 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize awardees were presented with their certificates and medallions by the Premier at a special award ceremony in the Drill Hall, Anzac House on 3 September, 2021. It was a great occasion for the 2021 awardees to meet the Premier and to celebrate their new status as recipients of a Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize. These 20 students join 143 other young South Australians who have been awarded a Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize since the inception of the prize in 2007.

As well as being addressed by the Premier, the ceremony was also addressed by Ms Cheryl Cates, RSL SA President and five of the 2020 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize awardees. The 2020 Premier's Anzac Spirit School Prize awardees played an important part in the ceremony and did the prize proud with their public speaking and general demeanour with the guests. 

The following images from the event show the enthusiasm and enjoyment of those involved in this very special occasion.

Adelaide River War Cemetery Every night on the trip the students are presenting their research on a person who died during the bombing of Darwin. Most of these people are buried at the Adelaide River War Cemetery. We are visiting the cemetery on Friday 23 April to conduct a commemoration service in honour of the people who died in Darwin during World War 2. Many of the students will have the opportunity after the service to visit the grave of the person they researched, to pay their respects.  Students sharing their stories at H on Smith During the week the stories the students have uncovered during their research will be posted on the blog.
