Remembrance Day is a very important day for Australians and New Zealanders (Kiwis) and all free people in the world.
Every year Australians observe 1 minute of silence at 11am on 11th November in memory to those who died or suffered in the first world war.
The war ended on 11 November 1918, hence the commemoration on that day. People go to memorials to place poppies beside the names of people who were killed at war.
Let us remember those, who gave their lives for the freedom of our countries.
Lest we forget.

Hi Karolina
I am hoping that all your readers will visit this site after reading your wonderful blog and leave a message.

On this site you will be able to plant a poppy (one symbol of remembrance) in a field to commemorate those who have been affected by war.
Between November 11, 2010 and April 25, 2011, we hope that we will have 1000 commemorative messages 'planted' by students from across the globe.
