Aussie Day

On Friday of Week 1, the school celebrated Australia Day by dressing up with an Australian theme. In class, we have been investigating how we celebrate our national day and how New Zealand, one of our nearest neighbours, celebrates their day. We compared and contrasted Australia Day and Waitangi Day. We found that we had a lot in common with each other but also some key differences. The class showed their information in a Venn Diagram. The money raised at Aussie Day is being donated to the Bushfire Appeal which has had such a huge impact in our state.
