About this word search

On Anzac Day, 25 April, New Zealanders remember the soldiers and nurses who served in war. Families go to a dawn service, lay a wreath, wear a red poppy and watch the parade.

Wreath and Parade are the longest words, with six letters each. Flag and Dawn are the shortest, with four. Anzac has the only Z. All words run left to right or top to bottom in the ten by ten grid.

After the puzzle, children can make a paper poppy and write one of the words on the back. It can be worn or put in a window for the day.
