to me it represents a fight for freedom against the odds, by people who didn't completely understand what that would entail, or what it meant. It also represents Australia's entry into international politics in a big way.
Mandatory? Hell no. Everyone has the right to say they think australia was fighting for te wrong side and the anzacs were the enemy. (they'd be stupid and wrong, but they are entitled to their stupid and wrong viewpoint) - free speech and all that. I don;t know about other schools, but the one I went to put a quite reasonable emphasis on the whole event.
