The DLTK website, have some good Remembrance day activities and crafts that can be used and adapted for Anzac day.  I loved theirfingerprint poppy wreath.     This is really something the whole congregation can do together.

Poppy time:  Gives clear instructions on how to make a poppy.  This is something that could easily be included in your service on the Sunday and  the children could possibly hand out after the service.  You may even want to buy a magnets and let the children create Poppy Fridge magnets.

I loved this You Tube clip in which children are asked by youth presenters what Anzac day means to them and why it is important.
