How did your Thursday go? 

Here's a video update from Mrs Lee

ANZAC Day

Did you know that tomorrow is ANZAC day?  

It's a day here in New Zealand where we take time to remember those that have served our country.  Our bubble will be listening to the dawn service at the bottom of our driveway.  If you'd like to hear the dawn service you can find out about it here.

In 2015 we commemorated the 100th year since the ANZACs  (Australian and New Zealand Soldiers) landed in Gallipoli on 25 April 1915. Since then New Zealand and Australia have fought side by side in other wars too.  Here's a timelapse of the dawn service held at the Auckland war memorial museum in 2015.   The music playing in the video is called the last post.

Learning at Home

Wow, there are some awesome marble rolls that have been recorded on the MakerEDNZ Flipgrid!

Well done Kayva your marble roll was very inventive!

If you're a year 3-6 learner you can check out the Flipgrid here, you'll need to sign in with your Sunnyhills account.  Remember you can also comment on the marble runs other people have made, make sure your comments are kind and thoughtful.   

Anyone can participate in the challenge the instructions for year 3-6 learners are in the links to their Exploration Station classrooms on the learning at home tab on this blog.  

Year 1-2 learners I have added the instruction video to the learning at home tab on this blog and you can email your creations to Mrs Lee if you would like me to add them to this blog or to the Flipgrid.
