The Anzac Day ceremony 

On Monday morning all the classes went to an Anzac ceremony because the soldiers that died in the war had a funeral. First after all the classes  came in front of the shade, everyone sang the New Zealand National Anthem. Then we all sat down. After that everyone was listening carefully to what Ms. Tuipulotu was saying. Next we all stood up again and everyone was quiet and we were listening to the trumpet. Then children from Room 1 helped the children in Room 12 put down the  the white crosses next to beautiful, red poppies. The children in Room one put down poppies, that people wear on their t-shirts, down on the grass. The white crosses had black writing with the name of the soldiers. Finally every class went back to their rooms. I felt exhausted because we had to stand for a very long time.

Learning about making blog comments with Room 15

Today some of the children from Room 15  came to teach us about how to write comments on people's blogs.

We learnt that you must first greet the person- just like when you see someone.

Then we need to write our name- so that the person knows who sent the comment.

When writing a comment we need to remember that a comment needs to be kind, helpful and thoughtful.

We really enjoyed learning about how to make good blog comments and can't wait till we can make our own comments next week.

Thank you Room 15 for helping us.
