About Anzac Day!

Title:New Zealand Celebrations - Anzac Day

Introduction -Anzac Day is a special honouring day, where majority of New Zealand Citizens take a moment of silence every April the 25th. Do you celebrate Anzac day? If so, how do you celebrate Anzac day?!

Paragraph 1 - ( The Anzacs )
The word Anzac. Anzac is an acronym for Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. It’s also a part of both New Zealand and Australia’s culture. Those from both countries talk about the “ spirit of Anzac “, which includes Anzac biscuits and the Anzac day test. The Anzac Day test, is both countries rugby or rugby league teams combined to compete for the Bill Kelly Memorial Trophy. This test usually lands on or near Anzac day.

Anzac day represents the landing of Australia’s and New Zealand’s Army Corp at Gallipoli, Turkey during World War 1 in 1915. This day we remember all New Zealanders who served their country in wars and conflicts.

Paragraph 2 - The red SymbolThe red poppy has become a symbol of war remembrance around the world. The red poppy had become successful the day before Anzac day in 1922. Red poppies had started to bloom after World War 1, located in the Flanders Fields, Belgium. These poppies are growing among the graves of war victims.

Paragraph 3 - CeremoniesTo honour our soldiers who fought hard for fairness for our countries, we have multiple ceremonies all over New Zealand and Australia to remember those who passed and those who still serve. At each ceremony there is a moment of silence, and it concludes with a prayer to remember them.

Conclusion -Anzac day is to remember them, to honour them, to appreciate who we are now. Without the red poppies there is no more to symbolize, and Anzac overall has such a special meaning and is celebrated in many different ways!x

{ My Family Hero } - Homework

Who:


My Nena!

My nana, Elizabeth. Had always taken care of me when I was sick or if I needed after school care. With her help I knew that I was always in good care.

Why? Although she was at an old age. She still pushed herself to make sure her grandchildren ( espiclally myself. ) are always having fun! I love how my nena always kept me safe, and i'm sure that's what a true hero is!
