We are well into our new theme learning about ANZAC
Day. We have started to build our knowledge
about the first ANZAC Day: What
happened? Why it happened? What affect did this have on the soldiers who
fought there? As we have looked through
the information about the Gallipoli Campaign we have come up with a lot of
questions. We will be inquiring into
these questions, not only to find out what happened but how they impacted on
life for the soldiers as well as life back in New Zealand.
As part of this unit we will be creating our own class
wall of remembrance. I am asking the students to go home and ask if
they have any relatives that have fought in any wars that New Zealand has
contributed to. It would be great if we
could find out information about our relatives who fought or played any part in any conflict, including any family members currently serving within the armed forces. Any artefacts, or photos that
could be brought to school would be great to share.
