Premier’s Spirit of Anzac Prize (SOAP) 2017-18 Topics and Entries now open:
This year, students have the opportunity to select from one of three topics:
Topic 1: “All war is a symptom of man’s failure as a thinking animal” comment/respond to John Steinbeck’s view of war
Topic 2: What impact did WWI or WWII or the Vietnam War have on Australian Society? (students to select one of these conflicts)
Topic 3: What does the “Anzac spirit” mean today in a diverse and multicultural Australia?
I encourage all year 9 and 10 students in our community to enter.
Student entries close on Monday 2 October 2017. Further details about the Prize and how to apply are available at www.dpc.vic.gov.au/soap.
