ANZAC Day

My gorgeous kiddies learnt all about the meaning of ANZAC Day at school yesterday. 

We read a beautiful story called 'My Grandad Marches On ANZAC Day' written by Catriona Hoy and Benjamin Johnson. 

We looked at, smelt and took home 'rosemary' from a colleagues garden and made our own wreaths with poppies. 

We also watched a great, age appropriate YouTube video from Sqwirk about ANZAC Day.

Students coloured the wreaths in green pastels. I copied the poppies onto red card paper and the students cut them out and added them to their wreaths. 

On Monday we will complete an ANZAC Day writing task to go with their completed wreaths.
