May Road School Anzac Ceremony

May Road School Anzac Day Ceremony

Today was a really sad Day for New Zealand and Australia.  Today was Anzac Day, the whole school went outside to a Anzac Ceremony.  There were 6 people from each class that was doing the crosses and the poppies. The bigger classes were budding up with the little classes which the classes is the older children and the little classes is the younger children.  Rm 14 & 2 were buddies, Rm 15 & 4, Rm 13 & 10 and Rm 11 & 5. These were the people that were doing the crosses from my class which is Rm 13, it’s Fatafehi (me), Robert, Julies, Irie, Luqman and Ehmarze, so that's the children from my class and I don’t remember the 6 children from the other classes.  It started at 9:10, the first thing we did was sing the National Anthem. After singing the National Anthem 6 children from each class was with there buddy class, Rm 4, 5, 2, 10 and 9 where the classes that had the young children and they were budding with Rm 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 they had the older children in that class. Right after the classes planted the crosses and the Poppies we were closing the Anzac Ceremony, after that we all went to our classes and started to write about the ceremony. We had 2 people from room 11 that had a really important job to do, that job was PRESENTING!! the Anzac ceremony and they also said the names on the crosses because the children and the teachers had to know who fought for us. The people who was planting the crosses and the poppies had to go in a long line and the teachers putted us in order.
