Making Websites on our research

Making Websites on our research

Baradene College students have handed in our final work that is linked to the Shared Histories Project. We had to individually make up websites about our research that showed our understanding of the topics we researched. Our focus was to present key ideas on our topic that were then explained. We had to focus on the impact on people and the significance to New Zealanders. This work connected the project to the NCEA Assessment we are doing for Level 3. Our websites were for History AS 3.2...

Individual Student Research Completed for the Shared Histories Project.

Baradene College of the Sacred Heart students have completed individual research associated with the project they have worked on for the Shared Histories partnership.

Concert at Lycée Proffessionnel Jean Mace

Concert at Lycée Proffessionnel Jean Mace

We attended a concert of French music today. The music was of French songs from the First World War and French poems from the First World War that had been set to music. The musicians played a contemporary musical version of these. It was a great concert to attend as it gave us a unique chance to hear this French music.

Paying our respects to New Zealand soldiers at Longueval

Paying our respects to New Zealand soldiers at Longueval

New Zealand and French students read poetry as a way of paying respect to the New Zealand soldiers who died in the Somme. Poems were read in Maori, French and the English language. We then laid a wreath and the New Zealand students sang a song in Maori. It was a great way to end the day and it was good to do this together. The students now understand very well that we both share a history for the First Wirld War.

The village of Craonne

The village of Craonne

The village of Craonne is on the Californie plateau which was the site of bloody fighting on 16 April 1917 during Nivelle's failed 1917 Offensives. It was these disastrous offensives that pushed the French Army over the edge and led to the 1917 Mutiny. The village was immortalised in the song called La Chanson de Craonne (English: The Song of Craonne). This song was sung by the 68 divisions of French soldiers (out of 110 French Army divisions) who mutinied. The song was prohibited in France...
