Kai ora whånau

With one week to go, I thought I'd celebrate the many events that have taken place this term:

• Meet the Teacher
• PAT testing
• Pizza lunch
• Swimming Sports
• Kapa Haka
• Awards Assemblies
• Weta Man
• ANZAC Day learning
• Our Special Places

Here is some excellent writing done by Room 11 after last week:

Anzac Day means to remember

New Zealand

Zzzzzzz snoring keeps me awake in the trench

Anzac poppies

Clapping… war over!

        

By Hamish

ANZAC Day is a day where people remember the people from the war

New people had to join the war

Zap! Boom! Crash! Zap! Zap!

And a lot of people died in the war

Countries came to fight and a lot of them died

By Nehemiah

ANZAC people fought in the war

New Zealand and Australia

Zap! Pow! Kaboom! went the bombs

Army walked a lot

Cold people are going to warm themselves up

By Soverin

ANZAC means protect our country

New

Zealand

ANZAC memory - remember men – soldiers

Countries fought against each other

By Felipe

ANZAC Day is about the people that fought in the war

New Zealand fought too

Zoom! Bang! Smash!

All of the soldiers dug trenches

Cold soldiers sleep in the afternoon

By Michael

ANZAC day is cool

New Zealand and Australia

Zap! Pow! Boom!

Anzac medicals
