ANZAC day

Throughout this week the students of 4/5A have been exploring what ANZAC day represents. We have been discussing the importance of commemorating the fallen soliders and those who go to war for our country. We have been exploring through story books, songs, persuasive writing pieces and cooking. Yesterday the students discussed why ANZAC biscuits are called ANZAC biscuits and why we bake them on this day of remembering. We baked ANZAC biscuits yesterday as a class. It was an enjoyable cooking experience whilst also a sad bake as we thought about the people at war who received the ANZAC biscuits many years ago. Lest we forget.
