Pics from a school visit


Just after ANZAC Day I visited a school in the northern suburbs of Melbourne.


Man, were these kids sorted! They knew all about Gallipoli and WWI. 


I took some WWI supplies including: tinned jam, hard tack biscuits and tinned corn beef. The latter can still be purchased today ... probably little changed. I'm not sure how the soldiers stored their hard tack biscuits but I do know why enlisting soldiers needed to have good teeth!


This lovely librarian was a fan of Seadog - she has a seadog of her own at home. She brought the best photo series to school to show her seadog at the beach.
