ANZAC represents the words Australia, New Zealand, Army Corps and we celebrate ANZAC Day on the 25th of April every year. We remember all the soldiers who went a long way from home to fight in wars. We make poppies because all of the soldiers who died and the graves were surrounded by beautiful red flowers that are called poppies.
We made poppies so we don’t forget the soldiers who fought in the wars. First our teacher printed a see-through outline of the poppy and then we had to cut out small pieces of red cellophane paper and stick them on the petals like a stained glass window. We coloured in the middle of the flower and Mrs Agnew hung them on the classroom window. I liked making my poppy.
