ANZAC Biscuits


On Tuesday afternoon we made ANZAC Biscuits. We put them into little bags to take home and share. To tie the bags, we made little labels that explained why the soldiers in WW1 were sent ANZAC biscuits as a treat. Did you know: the soldiers didn't receive the biscuits until two months after they were sent! However, they were still crunchy and good to eat! There are some photos of our some of our labels on a slide show.

Welcome Back to Term Two!

Welcome back to the new term. I hope you all had a fantastic holiday! We had a great start back in Week 1 last week, with lots of discussion about our holiday activities. This term we have lots of exciting learning experiences planned. Our inquiry this term is 'Our Beautiful World', and we will be gaining research and information skills through learning about what makes our world beautiful. As ANZAC Day was in the weekend, we began learning about the importance of ANZAC Day and the significance of some ANZAC symbols. This will be continuing on through into Week 2, with a special visitor booked to come in on Tuesday 27th April. We will keep you posted of our ANZAC learning!
