ANZAC Nerves - Red Hat Writing
Friday 24th, the school Anzac service. My heart was beating out of my chest with nerves. I was lucky enough to be able to lay a poppy underneath the flag pole. All the other year eight leaders were laying a poppy whereas the Head Girl and Head Boy were laying a wreath.
We all stood and one at a time we walked up with another pupil from different classes. My turn. I walked up nervously, poppy in hand and Makayla by my side. After my daunting experience I could finally breathe easy. But when I heard the bagpipes playing I couldn't help but feel sad about all the soldiers who died in the war.
Then when the bugle started playing all I could think about was all of my relatives who died or were injured in the war. The school Anzac service was very sad and I can never imagine what all the soldiers went through in the past wars.
We are here because they were there.
