Hi everyone,
This week we have been discussing The Anzac Spirit and how ANZAC soldiers showed certain characteristics during the war and if we still think these values are important in our lives today.
We have discussed:
- Sacrifice
- Courage
- Bravery
- Mateship
- Determination
- Endurance
We are reading Simpson and his Donkey to further explore these values.
Today Zahra shared a very moving postcard that her great grandfather sent back home to his family when he was at war, and told us the very personal story of how he died just after he had sent the postcard.
Personal stories and connections are very powerful and so we encourage you to discuss any family stories relating to war and history so that they may share these this week as we commemorate the ANZACS and all army personnel who have supported Australia in this way.
Thank you!
