Grade 5/6

What a fabulous start we have had to Term 2! On Monday 24th April, we decided to bake some ANZAC biscuits with the students, after reading and analysing the book, ANZAC Biscuits. As the teachers did a demonstration, the students were to write down the ingredients and steps. We then invited Mr Webber down to our rooms after recess, and following the students steps, he joined in on the fun making his own batch of biscuits (he was even a good sport and wore a pink 'apron'!). As the biscuits baked in the oven, a delicious smell filled the air, and to our delight, they tasted just as good!

At 10:45am, the ACPS students and staff (as well as a couple of parents) gathered outside for our ANZAC Ceremony, where we learnt about some of the animals in the war. We were lucky enough to see a 'soldier' (thanks Candis!!) on a horse and Zeus, accompanied by his owner, Don.

We would like to acknowledge the exemplary behaviour shown by our students during the ceremony, which was noted by a number of people in attendance. Well done 5/6s; you certainly led by example!
