Hi there,
This week for Social Studies we are learning about ANZAC. I really enjoy working on this. Anzac invaded on 1916. They celebrated this day on the 25th of April. On that day people came together to honour those lost at Gallipoli.
Today I have to answer some questions about a song called the last postS
Song: The Last Post
When do you hear this song?
You hear this song at 6am every 25th of April. Musicians are being urged to play The Last Post at the end of their driveways across Orange at 6am on Anzac Day.
Why is this song significant/important to New Zealand?
The Last Post is the bugle call that signifies the end of the day's activities. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as Anzac Day and Remembrance Day.
What is the History behind the Last post -
It originated with British troops stationed in the Netherlands, where it drew on an older Dutch custom, called taptoe, from which comes the term tattoo as in Military tattoo.
Why was it played and when?
Since 1928, the Last Post has been played every evening at 8 p.m. by buglers of the local Last Post Association at the war memorial of battle during First World war.
What does this song represent?
The remembrance of the soilders that day in the war.
Here is my map that i had to do about anzac:
I hope you like you it thankyou:)
Hi Keyana,
ReplyDeleteThis is really great work that you have done in Social Studies, about the history of Anzac Day. You're writing is structured and you have detailed answers. I like how you've added in a map of the Anzac attack, to show everyone what you were talking about. Keep up the good work.
Hey Keyana.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post. The amount of detail you have added is fantastic.
The only fault I could see was 1 grammar error but other then that this post is great. Well done Keyana. Great post.
Hi Keyana. I really like the effort you've put in your blogpost. It's clear, specific, well-written and very detailed. It would be nice if you added the link on your MyMap though, overall, good job.
