We had a great day and thank you to Pete and Vina for coming along an being our parent and Nana helpers. We couldn't have gone without you!

Lest we forget

Room 11 spent the week learning about and commemorating ANZAC day.
Mrs Waite bought in some special items that belonged to her husbands grandfather who fought in a war.

They were really interesting, and it was great to hear a real war story.

 

This a cup that had lots of engraving about the war on it.

  

This was a certificate that the soldier received after the war and a shaving kit that soldiers had to carry with them during the war. It even still had the soap!

Next... we made ANZAC biscuits. Yum!

We had to work in small groups and work out the quantities by

halving each ingredient. 

This turned out to be tricky and some biscuits tasted a little bit better than others, but we still enjoyed them!

Delicious!!
