Socks, Socks, Glorious Socks.

The students in Amua Hub have been fortunate enough to have received a warm socks for the Winter for FREE! We were all very excited to be given a set each for Monday to Friday so we will all match throughout the Winter.

Amua Celebrates our ANZAC's.

In Amua Hub we have been investigating our ANZAC soldiers and we have put together a range of poems to share our thoughts.

ANZAC In the war the soldiers  battled. Many lost their lives for what…? Many families paid a heavy price with a throw of a dice. Together families will  remember them, we will watch those brave men march, Through the darkest nights and longest days, Through muddy grounds and damp surrounds. We marched ahead with our heads held high. And there we see the poppies grow side by side above us all. On this day we wear with pride, red poppies to remember the courage so strong, you're in our hearts so rest in peace, Your memory lives on for all to embrace. Jaz. (Year 7)

Our Anzac Soldiers. Our soldiers that have passed Will not be the very last. More and more go away Hoping they’ll come back some day. Fighting to protect their country in war Although they come out very poor. Our soldiers that risked their lives Getting hurt by guns and knives. In our hearts we are grateful But not the ones that are hateful As the soldiers shed their pain Getting shot again and again. On far away fields our soldiers lay But in our heart they must stay. Keeping warm in your fleece To our soldiers rest in peace. By Lataya

In The Fields.

In the Fields

In Flanders Fields Poppies grow,

Rocking in the wind to add fro.

The wonderful dead,

Rest respected in their beds.

If only, If only I could see you again,

I’d give you my heart for one hug,

My friend.

In Flanders fields you lie in peace,

In your heart R.I.P.

In Flanders Fields poppies grow,

Stone crosses lined in a row.

Our ANZAC Poem Thoughts.

ANZAC Soldier. I will…...

I am a New Zealand soldier.

I am a warrior and a member of a team.

I serve the people of New Zealand.

I will always place the mission first.

I will never accept defeat.

I will never quit.

I will never leave a fallen comrade.

I am a guardian of freedom and the New Zealand way of life.

I am a New Zealand soldier.
