Kate Sheppard

Kate Sheppard on our New Zealand $10 note





This week we have been learning about Parliament and Election and their functions. but today we had a brief discussion about Kate Sheppard. for our follow up activity. To me she sounded really interesting Kate is on our $10 note and her campaigns made New Zealand the first country in the world to let woman vote in 1893. For most other countries, (including Britain and the United States) eventually let woman vote after world war 1.

SPORT

My favorite sport is swimming. Because it is so fun and at training we do some pretty cool stuff like relays at the end of the session, or swims, pulls and kicks, all sorts. Any two sessions are never the same. Also at Tawa (the swim squad i swim in) and (the best squad) definitely not (Karori pirates) We do lots of regular swim meets. 
It is soooooooo much fun, i really enjoy it and nights of training does get payed of cause every swim meet pretty much i get a pb (personal best time) and is cool seeing how much you improve.

Overall swimming is one of the best things that ever happened to me. sometimes i would wonder where i would be if i didn't do swimming. 




Good Bye !!!

PRODUCTION

I'm so excited for our school production, every day it gets closer and closer to the big day. But there's so many things to do in the time. like, our costume for the space cantina scene some people have been chosen from rm 11 and 12  to be apart of the big scene. We have to make cool alien costumes for the accession, and to LEARN MY LINES!!
But I only have to learn a couple of lines so I've got that all sorted with, and also there's the dance. I love being in that dance, its so fun dancing with my friends and all that and were only half way through just another half to go!   
































See You Next Time! Good Bye :)
