ANZAC Day
Room 7 will be investigating why, after almost 100 years, we still remember ANZAC Day.
What relevance does it have for us in 2012?
We will be using the Year 3-4 ANZAC Day wiki to help us understand more about the ANZAC spirit.
To start off, watch the clip below about Simpson and his Donkey. We have this book in the school library, have you read it?
