A few photos from our ANZAC Day and a sample of the poems and journal entries from the kids.
Anzac Day
Today I got up at 5.00am to go to the dawn service in Eden.
I do not think it was too fancy for being the 100th Anniversary
since the brave men and women from New Zealand and Australia fought.
It was a beautiful sun rise and all was silent during speeches,
they made me think about wounds on soldiers and gun fire raining down upon the
battalions of soldiers fighting for peace.
Thousands of men died this day 100 years ago.
They fell for us
They died for us
They caused our freedom
ANZACS
Lest we forget
Oliver.
THE ANZAC'S |
They fought for us
They died for us
We honour them with
every breath
And every move
We are free because of
them
We are safe because of
them
Lest we forget

ANZAC
WE
MUST GET BACK
All the ANZACs What must they think
When their boat is About to sink
We must stay afloat We must stay alive
We must get back to Our families and
wives
All the ANZACs What must they do
When all their enemies Are shooting at you
We must stay hidden We must stay alive
We must back to Our families and
wives
All the ANZACs What must they do
When people are Falling from the flu
We must fight it off We must stay alive
We must get back to Our families and
wives
All the ANZACs What must they feel
When they got set up For an unfair deal
We’re coming home We stayed alive
We will get back to Our families and wives!
