WORLD WAR 1.

WWI- WORLD WAR 1.

On July 28th 1914 World War 1 was where it all began. People from our country signed up to save our people. But many people from different countries, even New Zealand, died and saved our country.

It lasted until November 1918. More than 9 million soldiers were killed. Today at assembly Mr. Burt called us to have a very important assembly. Mr Burt and Mrs Flavelle’s great grandfathers were in the war too.

I felt great that people like them risked there lives to save our peoples lives. I felt sad for the one’s that didn't come back to there families, maybe people around the world their love one’s are dead.
