Anzac Day - 25th April


Anzac ceremony
We had to be silent because we were thinking about the people who died.  People walked in with NZ, Australian and Turkish flags.  We sang the song 'Sons of Gallipoli'.  It felt very sad but we remembered how generous the soldiers were to fight for us.  We realised that if the soldiers hadn't fought then we might not even be here.

Library - Read the Donkey Man
The Donkey Man book was very interesting and sad but also a little funny.  It was all about a man called Richard Henderson who was a medic in Gallipoli who helped the soldiers who were hurt by giving them medicine and carrying them away from the war on his donkey.
