Welcome to Term 2!!!!

A huge welcome back to Term 2!!! This week we are focussing on ANZAC Day. During this week we will be learning a lot about ANZAC Day and how we commemorate this special occasion. On Thursday we are going on a walk to the war memorial in Mt Eden, to learn more about how we honour soldiers who died for our country. In the classroom we are making poppies, reading books about Dawn Parades and looking at photos of the different aspects of war. In the school grounds we have made a field of remembrance, using white crosses and we will be having a short ceremony later in the week. Please discuss this special and important event with your children and talk about the following vocabulary: soldier, poppy, army, honour, remember.
