Anzac Day
On Monday the 23rd April the entire Centre of ABC Hastings Central, with the help of parents and whanau, walked down to the Hastings Cenotaph. One of our older children placed the wreath on the Cenotaph, with the help of her peer, which had been created by the children and staff. We then sat around the Cenotaph enjoying the sun and the children sang the national anthem, in Māori and English, which they had been practicing for the previous few weeks. We then had some ANZAC biscuits, which the children had made at the end of last week, water and some fruit. With everyone settled down with their kai we then read the book ‘ANZAC Ted’ by Belinda Landsberry.
