===ANA Day===
<!---redirect targets this section--->
Around the end of the 19th century, the Victorian association advocated for a kind of forerunner of what is today [[Australia Day]], to be celebrated on 26 January as a public holiday and the national day. This subsequently became known as ANA Day in Victoria, but was not taken up by the other states until 1935, and renamed Australia Day.<ref name=bongiorno2018>{{cite web | last=Bongiorno | first=Frank | title=Why Australia Day survives, despite revealing a nation's rifts and wounds | website=[[The Conversation (website)|The Conversation]] | date=21 January 2018 | url=http://theconversation.com/why-australia-day-survives-despite-revealing-a-nations-rifts-and-wounds-89768 | access-date=23 January 2022}}</ref><ref name=hirst2008>{{cite web | last=Hirst | first=John | title=Australia Day in question | website=The Age | date=26 January 2008 | url=https://www.theage.com.au/national/australia-day-in-question-20080126-ge6nf0.html | access-date=23 January 2022}}</ref><blockquote>"...What the people celebrate on [[Australia Day]] is not the coming into being of the [[Australia|Australian Commonwealth]], for that befell on New Year’s Day; and not May 9, when the first Parliament of the Commonwealth commenced its sittings; but January 26, the day in 1788 when the first permanent [[Settler colonialism|white settlers]], being Captain [[Arthur Phillip]]’s officials, marines and transported convicts from England, landed on the shores of Sydney Cove."<ref name=":3">{{Cite web |title=Australian Natives' Association, 1871–1961 : a history of A.N.A. since founded 90 years ago. |url=https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-2262609850 |access-date=2023-04-17 |website=Trove |language=en}}</ref></blockquote>
