ANZAC Study

Yesterday our class walked to the town square to visit the cenotaph. It was interesting to read the names of those who died and see the crosses. Some children in Room M will be participating in or attending the dawn parade on Saturday 25th of April.

We have been learning about ANZAC and poppies for the 100 year commemoration. It has been an interesting and tasty experience. 

Here are some pictures to show you what we have been doing.

Haerenga Ora Fitness Track Opening 2015

M.S.S is incredibly lucky to have had an amazing fitness track built during the last holidays. It is a sealed track that we will be able to ride our scooters on once the road markings have been put on. 

The fitness track is called Haerenga Ora ( journey of health).

Here are some clips from the opening today.
