Siginificance of WW1

Hello, this is my blog post on the importance of WW1 and The Last Post.

The Last Post is played in Belgium every evening at 8 pm since 1928, the song is important to NZ because it's an expression of Belgium's gratitude for the contribution that Kiwi's servicemen and women made to its defense during WW1.

Most believe that the last post is a song about honoring those we have lost in the war, although the Last Post has come to carry such mournful weight and meaning, it was not originally used in a memorial context. In fact, the Last Post was just a song when it was first made. First published and played in the 1790s.

    Hello Vin,
    This is a interesting blog post that you have done in Social Studies, about the history of Anzac. I like how you've included a photo to show the readers what The Last Post song refereed to. Maybe next time you could structure your work and add in more facts about the topic. I think it would engage more people to really read your post because there will be lots of information given out. Other than that keep up the good work and keep working hard.

    Intriguing work Vin, I enjoyed reading it very much, It's nice to learn about you country's backstory a little bit more in-depth, I also like the guy jamming with the trumpet, Next time maybe you could put a little more effort into presentation,
    Much appreciation,
