The Anzacs - Remember

The Year 5 and 6 Film Club recently entered a competition run by the Auckland City Museum called 'I Am Making Movies'.

It was a great experience for all children involved, and we were even short listed to be among the best documentaries featured in the competition. Although we did not win a main prize, we learnt a lot about film making and digital learning.

Here is a copy of our film.
