ANZAC Day

97 years ago in 1915 we said farewell to the great war heroes in history. 

Tomorrow is ANZAC day. The day where great grandfathers, fathers, uncles, aunties, mothers and fathers all died. 

We wear poppies on ANZAC day because they grow in the battle fields.

My Story about the Weetbix Tryathlon

 

I parked and I got some breakfast from the breakfast bar. Then I had to put my bike away in the transport area and had the race briefing. I got to meet one of the Australian basketball players. Then we got started to do the Tryathlon. I warmed up and then swam for fifty metres! And I finished the swimming and then I had to do the biking. I got my bike from the transport area and then I biked from the Lido and I went around the houses. Then into the forest.  Then around the corner. Then back into the transport area. I put my bike away and I started to run all around Ongley Park and I finished the Weetbix Trythlon Series and I got a golden medal. I got my time and I came first place and I got a picture taken and got a Weetbix drink bottle.

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.

Team1s wow assembly!

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.
