✧・゚:* *:・゚✧2024 Highlights✧・゚:* *:・゚✧

Term1 Highlights: It was the first day of school. I have a new class new teacher that I barely knew it’s pretty chaotic, I just couldn’t wait to see who was in my class. When I step into Team 5 I saw 4 different teachers that I never had but I saw one that was in Team 4 that I had before Mrs Lagitupu. When they called out the names I was in Room 2 with Mrs Ilaoa. Term 1 was pretty cool with fun things. My favourite event in Term 1 has to be Myanmar Language Week. I did a speech in English relieving my family and then we did a performance for the school.

 

Term 2: Transformer OMG. New theme I never seen this theme before so I was quite curious about it. I learn about lots of new things. Our DLO was about creating a play with a group that we got assigned to. Then the Year 8s had to go off to camp with helpers and Mr Wiseman and Mr Moran. The Year 7s had to do the Step It up prommange which is actually quite fun. I enjoy hanging out with my friend. Year 7 had to step up so there were  Supersubs for the backup prefects and Oh my gosh were they good you are asking,OF COURSE THEY ARE they were amazing.

 

Term 3: Karawhina Give it Heaps!!! New theme I have never seen. This theme is all about Health&Pe. The Inquiry Team 5 had to do is learning a new skill and documenting it. We edited on dfferent editing site but I used Imovie it’s just easier. My highlight of Term 3 was the Inquiry I enjoyed it, I chose Juggling as my skill but sadly I didn’t learn how to juggle.

 

Term 4: This theme is May the Force be with you. We had to learn all about sound and vibrations. I went into pairs with Maria. We were supposed to present it in class but out teacher Mrs Ilaoa said that we could record it and send it to her. My highlight of the year was PRIZEGIVING!! Prizegiving is so much fun. Here is what you do in Prizegiving is about not only getting awards but showing love to your family and friends that you love the most. You received awards and d0 performance for your family and school. It goes from Room 9&10, Room 6&7&8, Year 7 and Year 8. Mr Burt(Pt England School’s lovely principal) announced who got the leadership roles and I was panicking because I applied and I didn’t know if I would get it.  He announced the final female prefect and I got it I was so happy and proud for myself. I didn’t want to feel emotional because sometimes whenever I got something I sometime get emotional I just look dumb. After the Year 8s do their item we do a closing prayer, if you didn’t know Pt England School has a School song written by Max Jacobsen(Mr Jacobsen/J’s brother) we sing them it our family. Of course at the end of school we all get emotional whenever you make friends that are going to leave for college next year you gotta hug them.

 

And that’s a wrap of my highlights of 2024. I can’t wait to see what 2025 will bring us

Your sincerely

Khaing Shwe Wain Aung Year 7 Student at Pt England School

Reading: All about Apartheid

What is a apartheid?

A apartheid is a system for the white people and the non white people who were separated in South Africa. It lasted in the 1950’s to the early 1990s. The word “apartheid” means apartness in the Afrikaans(A south african language)

The population of the country is mostly non white. For many years the South African controlled the country’s government. They established laws that kept races separate and discriminated against the non white majority.

Apartheid divided South Africans into four groups which are the white, black, “Colour” and Asian. The policy created separate areas in cities for each group. Each member get selected to be in the group that they were supposed to be in. The members were not supposed to be allowed to live, created business. Under pass laws, the nonwhite people had to carry passes in the white areas. Other laws set up separate school and restricted schools to each race to different types of jobs. The government also 10 territories called “Home land” and the black people were forced to tell the white people that they had to move out.

With the support of some of the white people, many people in South Africa protect which turned into violence. A district called Soweto rioted in 1976 against the requirement that the blacks had to learn Afrikaans. Other countries also combined apartheid. In 1985 Great Britain and the United States of America restricted trade with South Africa!

As a response to the protest, the South African government granted the non white people some rights in the 1980s. In the 1990-1991 the government led by the President F.W de klerk ended most of the apartheid laws. In 1994 all the races were allowed to vote in a national election. Nelson Mandela, the leader of the ANC, was elected president. The Apartheid was over, but its effect remained. Racial discrimination continued in South Africa
