Anzac Day

Our first week we have been looking at Anzac day, we have made some informational posters about the Anzac poppy, written diary entries and found out a lot of information about Anzac Day. Here's what we did, what did you do?
Check out our individual blogs for more information.

    Great to see you back blog posting for term 2. I really like the diaries you have written. I can tell that you have really put yourselves in the minds of the soldiers as you wrote your diary. Did any of you go to the Dawn Parade on Anzac Day. I went in Whangarei but one day I would really LOVE to go to Gallipoli - I imagine it would be a very powerful and emotional event. Enjoy your term learning and I look forward to seeing more blogposts.

    1. Hey Tania,
      Room 2 appreciates your comments. We looked onto our class blog and found 11 comments on 1 post :O. The ANZAC theme I really enjoyed because we done really cool sunset pictures of soldiers kneeling down to a grave and many more exciting things. I can only speak for myself as I did not attend the Dawn Parade on Anzac Day. We will enjoy our second term as our last term with Kara and we'll hopefully enjoy it all as one happy family. I hope same goes for you enjoy this Term and have an awesome day...

      Until your next overwhelming comment.

    1. Hello Shushant,
      Thank you for the warm welcome. I appreciate the kind compliments you have said on your comment, while I was working on my diary all I could think of was how scary to participate in the army and I think men should be admired for doing that for their country. I didn't have the chance to the Dawn Parade.....
      But if you really had the opportunity to go to Gallipoli what would you do first?

      Please come and see my blog http://edhillamandaf.blogspot.co.nz/

  16. Hi my name is Aaron and I think that this piece of writing tells a lot about the poppies in a very short way. I can't see anything that you would need to work on. This is some interesting work come over to my blog http://kaniereaarong.blogspot.co.nz/ the is also quite a lot of interesting work.

  18. Malo e lelei Room 2, my name Alfred and I am a student in room Manukau at Waikowhai Primary School. I really like how you were pretending that you were in the war and telling us how you were felling. It made me think of when my grandpa went to the war and survived. Have you thought about adding a bit more detail to it and weather you think that you might not make it home so it would be more interesting.

Maybe next time you could show more pictures on what happened on the day. please check out my amazing blog at http://wpsstevieleew.blogspot.co.nz/
