Miss You All

Dear Mum

I hope we meet again it’s been hard to live here and it’s very hard to get food here but I hope you are doing good. How is dad doing? Is he still staying healthy? .I miss you all. How are the girls I heard that Lily just got a degree in school. Tell her I said keep it up but tell them that I love them and I miss them so badly.
I’ve  been shaking for past few days because I've been seeing stuff, you won’t believe what I’ve been seeing but lets not get into that let's talk about happy stuff. Hopefully I’ll see you guys again.

From Mike

Anzac School Service

In commemoration of the 100th Anniversary of Anzac Day, Ruapotaka School held an Anzac service.  The last post was played, national anthem sung, there was a minutes silence, a wreath was laid and students spoke.  
It was a special occasion.


Museum Trip

On Thursday of last week Rooms 9 and 10 travelled to the Auckland Museum to learn more about the First World War and ANZAC day.

Anzac Day

This year is the 100th anniversary of Anzac Day.  As we learn about this we will be documenting what we find out by creating Anzac Learning Journals which we will share as complete.  

Here are some resources about Anzac Day and the First World War that you may find helpful when completing your journal.
