Poppies, poppies, poppies!

As part of our ANZAC inquiry the driving question was: Why Poppies?
This question was asked by one of the children in Room 8. Interesting question and it isn't normally answered. 
We did some research, looked at photos and poems! We came to the conclusion that poppies are used for a couple of reasons. 

1. Represents blood (red) mourning (black)
2. Poppies grew in the battle fields

Here is some art work we did around Poppies.
