ANZAC & KEGS

Just before the holidays we had a special school ceremony for ANZAC. We had special guest speakers to explain about the significance of the Poppy and to share what ANZAC is about.
We had the NZ flag at the front and we sang the National Anthem. We listened to the bugle playing the "Last Post". We had a reflection time to think about what happened in the war and to show our respects. A huge thank you to Miss Anderson for organising this special service.



Every Tuesday afternoon we have KEG's with Joanna. KEGS stands for Kids Edible Gardens. Recently we found a huge pumpkin in our garden and we made some yummy pumpkin soup.
We have also had ample feijoas on the ground. We made feijoa crumble. Some of us thought that we wouldn't like it, but we all had a try and it was so yummy and sweet. The crumble on the top looks like our ANZAC biscuits too.

  


Check it out we had a "Fire Engine" at school. Someone got picked up in the morning and brought to school in the fire truck. How lucky!!
This is to finish off our Fire Wise topic.
