During a war, a "front" is a place where armies are fighting battles. In World War I, most of the major battles were in Europe. So in World War I, "Western Front" refers to the front in the western portion of Europe- it was mainly in northern France, where Germany had invaded. The "Eastern Front" was in Eastern Europe, primarily around the borders between Russia and Germany/Austria-Hungary.
Australians and New Zealanders participated in many battles on the Western Front, from 1916 onwards. Some of the battles Australians were involved in included Fromelle, Passchendaele, Villiers-Brettoneux, Third Ypres, and the Siegfriend Line.

Battles such as Fromelles, Pozieres, Bullecourt, Messines, Ypres and so on resulted in the deaths of many, which when you consider Australia had a relatively small population had a profound impact on the national mindset.
