Activity 2: Fighting for Freedom

Mahatma Gandhi was an activist best known for his role in helping India become an independent country in 1947. Prior to this, India was under British rule. During the fight to become free from England, Gandhi (and others) led peaceful protests, marches, and hunger strikes in India. His birthday (2nd October) is widely celebrated in India as the International Day of Nonviolence.

Gandhi originally studied to be a lawyer in London, England. When he completed his studies, he got a job in South Africa where he saw that people were treated differently because of their skin colour. He thought this was unfair and wrong, and so he organised protests to highlight the rights of Indians living in South Africa.

Gandhi impacted the world by using non-violent protest to bring about change. Recently, school students around the world have followed his lead and participated in peaceful protests about climate change. These were started by a girl called Greta Thunberg who, like Gandhi, is using nonviolent protest to try and make a change.

I think Donald Trump building a wall between mexico and america is really bad idea because I think that anybody has the rights to travel to any country in the world. Donald trump is the president, but I think him building a wall to keep out the Mexicans is wrong because what if the Mexicans try and destroy the wall and lots of people get hurt. That's why I think building a wall to keep out the Mexicans is a bad idea.

Summer learning journey Day 3 activity 1- the water project

The Water Project

lots of people have clean free water everyday but not these countries Rajasthan , India and sub Saharan Africa. Everyday one person out of eight people go and search for anything that they can drink and they bring buckets or anything that they can store water in. These countries do not have access to clean water so drink water that is contaminated by animals and humans which is brown water. Some water is some feet under ground so if they just dig down will get fresh water or they can just cover it with dirt so they can make more plants

.

I think that sport girls should be payed the same amount of money as the sports boys because girls play the same sport as the boys and girls are good at all the sports like them. Girls should get the same amount of money because sports boys get a lot of money and girls get less money. Why they should get the same amount of money is because boys and girls play the same sport and there is no difference that's why I think girls should get the same amount of money.

After every one just went home.

Day 4 camp

Today we went to see the historical places in Russel. So first we got ready and went into the bus with our stuff then took off to this town in Russel.

First we went to see the the oldest church in New Zealand and it is the oldest Anglican church. The name of the church is Christ church. Back when Hone heke was alive the cut down the british flag and went down to the town killed and burnt people and houses. So we went in front of the church and it had lots of tomb stones of people especially our old principals great grandfather Tamati waka nene they buried his body there because he fought for New Zealand. We went in and sat down on the chairs and we prayed for a while. Then we went outside to go to our next stop.

Next we went to the Pompalier house. It was the french catholic's headquarters where they made bibles and scriptures and leather for the book covers. First we went outside to see how they made leather, there was a square hole that had water in it and it had some leather inside. First my brother Viliami had to get this grabber and grab the leather from the water, then it was my turn when I was grabbing the leather it was hard to hang it up because it was pretty heavy. Then we went up stairs to see some things that they had back then. Then Lilo got the chance to make art with this machine that they used to make art on paper. Then we went outside and headed off.

After we went to go up a mountain to Flagstaff hill with Chris. On the way up we learnt some pretty interesting things like about native penguin in New Zealand called the Korora, it is a little blue penguin that the british used to eat. When made it up there was a big pole with flags, from there we could see where the other Flagstaff was it was on the Waitangi grounds.

Then we went to this little museum near the Pompalier house it had replica a pirate looking ship. And had little 3D video that taught some things.

After that our whole class went back into the bus and headed back to our campsite to get ready to go to the beach each group had 15 minutes every seven people and I was part of the first seven that went. It was fun because we got to play volleyball in there. Then we went back to the camp for dinner. For dinner we had fried bread , corn and ham. Then we had a dance battle in our groups, we all had 10 minutes to come up with a dance. When the ten muntes was up it was our groups turn we dance to the git up challenge. And then it was group 2 and then group 3.

Next it was the freestyle round and we won that round with 18 points. but are team still lost because group 3 got 30 points then we had a campfire and ate smores and sang songs

Day 3 camp

Today we went to kerikeri. Kerikeri is the largest town in Northland , New zealand its near our campsite which is in Russel. We went there to see the stone store, Kemp house and Rewa's village.

First we went to see the Kemp house, we saw lots of old things. We learnt what they used for writing which was slates and a black stick as the pencil. Then we went in to the next room which had a picture of Hongi hika a leader of iwi Ngapuhi tribe and it had a picture of his daughter Hariata rongo hika. After Mrs Raj chose seven people to go to the upstairs room. It was a little scary for me because there were two rooms with dolls on the bed. After we went back down stairs and played a game where we have to throw a ring on to a wooden stick, Then we went outside to take a photo.

Next we went inside the stone store which is the oldest store in New Zealand, it had lots of cool things in there. I think in the stone have been trading things like muskets ever since it was built. And it had a music box that could play different kind of music my favorite was the pink panther. Then we had to go to the upstairs to do a quiz. After the quiz we went outside to look at the view of the waterfall.

Next we went to Rewa's village to see how the maori lived what they live in, we also took a photo outside one of the houses that they ised to live in.

Finally we did a scavenger hunt. We had to go through the stone store and the forest and it was tiring because we had to walk a lot, the team that won the scavenger hunt was group 1. After that we went on the ferry back to our campsite, we also had pasta for dinner.

at the end of the day I felt really happy because we got to experience lots of places and learnt lots of things.
