ANZAC the origin of poppies

In Room 1 we have been researching about ANZAC. I decided to do an inquiry into why poppies are a symbol of remembrance for soldiers in World War 1. Please enjoy my slideshow and leave a comment, including feedback on how I can improve my post. Thank you

Next week the Young Vinnies are collecting a sack of cans to feed the people who don't have enough money to feed their family this is called 40 bags in 40 days.

This is for a special time of year we are in Lent. Lent began on Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter Sunday. For Lent we are giving a sack of cans and we would really appreciate it if everyone bought a can so that you can share Lent with us.

We would appreciate cans of food such as fruit and beans, really whatever you can bring in.

Most of us don't know what that feels like to go hungry for a day. So let's try and help!

Thank you to everyone who is helping support the initiative,  if you can't help please spread the word to those that can.

We are trying to help these people so thank you again for helping us support each other.

Hi this is a thank you letter to Bryce Elijah´s father he came to our week 5 year 7&8 camp…
He was my camp leader and a very good one too. I had a great time.
Don´t forget to comment.

Dear Bryce,

Thank you so much for coming on camp here is a list of things you did that I really appreciate.

Firstly, thank you for waking up early to prepare breakfast, preparing lunch and for staying up late to help with dinner.

Thank you for encouraging us and letting us know that we´ve got this.

Thank you for driving people to and from camp. I may not be one of them, but I am sure they are grateful.

Thank you for taking photos to show caregivers. I know they would be missing their kids.

Thank you for making sure that we were absolutely 100% safe while still having a go and trying new things.

Thank you for fixing the nail on the deck so that we did not hurt ourselves.

Thank you for making the people who were sad laugh and smile it was really kind and thoughtful
