Students from Room 8 participated in the Marsden Valley School, Shantytown, poppy challenge. Enjoy.... 
In Flanders Fields by John McCrae
B
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Ruma Waru, these are fabulous. I will go for a poppy walk this afternoon and see if I can see any of them. I need a break from learning@home, and you do, too. Have the weekend off!! Make and eat ANZAC biscuits!
ReplyDeleteMaybe some of you will take your poppies to your gates at 6 a.m. tomorrow!
