Ceasar the ANZAC Dog

CAESAR
THE ANZAC DOG


There was a dog named Caesar who was a red cross dog in the army. He went hunting for wounded and dead solders  when Tom and the stretcher bearers  were out  in no mans land.

One day Tom sent Caesar out to hunt for dead and wounded men at night. Caesar did not come back. Tom knew he had to wait till day light before he went hunting for him.

The next morning Tom and the stretcher bearers went hunting for Caesar. One of the stretcher bearers yelled he’s over here. Caesar was dead. He was shot in the chest while lying  by a dead New Zealand solder.

WALA soccer skills.

Shane Rufer came to teach us soccer skills today.  We learnt a lot about dribbling and controlling the ball.  However the biggest lesson we learnt was about our Key Competency -Participating and contributing.  After a while we found that some of us got very impatient with others and didn't play well in our team.  We discussed what our school Gospel value UNITY looks like and decided to use this more.  Mrs Cosgrove showed us how there is no I in TEAM.  We are going to call our class Team1s and try to apply this Gospel value.

WALT create music using an instrument.
Today Team1s played the ukelele at the Middle Team Assembly. They remembered the key points from the lesson which were to hold the ukelele correctly, strum in time and play C7.  They produced a beautiful sound and played an encore.

Anthony took these photos of Team1s lesson at the swimming pool.  His photos show students gliding, learning to float on their backs, and using arms for backstroke.

WALT use the Key Competencies

In Room 1 we have been learning to work co operatively using the Relating to Others Key Competency. These photos show us exploring our island senario.  To do this we had to listen to others ideas and accept those even if they were different to ours. We also had to encourage each person in our group to particpate.
