BURNHAM MILITARY SOLDIERS AT SHOOL-HOW EXCITING!

Renato Gimeno on the left and Matt
Four young soldiers ,Renato,Matt,Blair and Phillip arrived just after 9am and set up base in our playground and Mission Centre. We had an amazing day with a variety of exercises from a classroom lesson to handling firearms.
After lunch we engaged in physical activities to find out who was fitter - the soldiers or the students.
Have a guess!
 

I just want to thank the NZ Army for the opportunity of an experience the students will remember forever!
We are so blessed to have such great soldiers looking after the people of New Zealand.
 


Last but not least one, of the soldiers Renato Gimeno, is an ex-student of St Anne's who  I taught in Room 5 and through whom this experience was arranged- So many thanks Renato - we are so proud of you.



The students will tell you more by the end of the week of what exactly they did and how they felt.
