Week 2 Day 1 Bonus Activity - The Early Years - In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields Poem

I like this poem as it reminds me of the soldiers who fought for our country over 100 years ago.

It also makes me sad as they had to give their lives to help end the war and give us some peace.

How does this poem make you feel?

Week 2 Day 1 Activity 2 - The Early Years - The Right to Vote

Thats Crazy that women in other countries where not allowed to vote until recently.

I think that is unfair, that they did not allow women to vote, as they thought women would make the wrong choices. The men were making wrong choices.  Everyone deserves to vote for their leader.  

I think Kate Sheppard did the right thing, her actions allowed everyone in our country and now the world to have their say. 

Could you imagine being Kate Sheppard and doing the same thing?  I know I would.

Week 2 Day 1 Activity 1 - The Early Years - St Joseph's Cathedral

Too many to choose from.
Today's posts I had to chose a famous Cathedral and share some facts about it. I have chosen Notre Dame Cathedral.



Firstly I would like to share why I chose this one.  I have learnt lots about France, and would like to travel there one day.  This is one place I would like to visit while I am there.

Notre Dame is located in Paris, France. 1160 they made the decision to build Notre Dame.  3 years later they started building in 1163.  It took almost 200 years to complete.
