This year my school gave me the opportunity to join Project K. This is a program in which you go on a three-week journey starting from Windy point then tramping + biking back through the gates of Hornby High. I recommend that anybody who is given the opportunity should take it. It was extremely difficult but I still enjoyed it.

Passion Projects- Finished Product
For the past 4 weeks, we have been working on something called passion projects, one of my passions is sewing so I decided to create a quilted blanket. To make the blanket I used fleece and scrap material from the school textiles class. I had to cut the scraps into squares then together them, and finally to the fleece backing. I finished my blanket last week but I lost the blanket and I have no photos however it looked similar to this

NZ descrimination
This week we have looked at Jacinda Adern apologising for the Dawn Raids, A girl named Zeinab and her story, and finally Simu Liu's post about Asian hate. I have learnt a lot about racism and discrimination and learnt that there's so much more out there than I had thought. Before this week I had never even heard of the dawn raids. So im glad that I know and understand more about rasicm.
