    I hope that you all had a lovely ANZAC Day and enjoyed your long weekend.

    Here's a reminder of What is ANZAC Day?

    For our session today we will start working on our history roads.

    A reminder that a history road:

    • takes the form of a widening road coming towards you

    • has the oldest event at the beginning of the road

    • may have symbols or sketches to go with the events.
