ANZAC Day  

Last week we learnt about ANZAC Day and why it is important to remember it.  We read stories, watched clips, found out facts and took part in our school ceremony.

We made our own poppies to wear at this ceremony.

We listened to Matt Elliott, the author of “Nice Day for a War”.  He talked to us about his Grandfather who he had based his book on and shared some stories and facts that came from his research.

Take time to look at his site http://www.slane.co.nz/nicedayforawar.html.
