In keeping with the spirit of Reconciliation,

I acknowledge the Turrbal, Jagera/Yuggera, Kabi Kabi and

Jinibara Peoples as the Traditional Owners of the lands where

QUT now stands – and recognise that these have always

been places of teaching and learning.

I wish to pay respect to their Elders – past, present and

emerging – and acknowledge the important role Aboriginal and

Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within the QUT

community.

Remembrance Day

Every year, on 11 November at 11 am – the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month – we pause to remember those men and women who have died or suffered in all wars, conflicts and peace operations.

In Australia and other allied countries, including New Zealand, Canada and the United States, 11 November became known as Armistice Day - a day to remember those who died in World War I.  The day continues to be commemorated in Allied countries.

After World War II the Australian Government agreed to the United Kingdom's proposal that Armistice Day be renamed Remembrance Day to commemorate those who were killed in both World Wars.  Today the loss of Australian lives from all wars and conflicts is commemorated on Remembrance Day.
