Hi, I’m Xander Ford my family decided to move places from Britain to New Zealand. We decided to move because of the population and because of European gave British Immigrants legal rights as a citizen.

Here is my story. I’m just a 14 years old kid that lives in a horrible life in Britain, we have
no food to eat no house to sleep
and no proper clothes to use. I have 2 sisters and I’m the oldest one to us, my
father and I do have a job. I'm working at the factory,
controlling some machines and cleaning
some tools of it, at my young age I already experience a lot of jobs they
accept children to work, having a job is not that easy for a child but I'm doing
this for my family. One day I heard
my parents talking about our situation I heard them
talking about going to another country to live a more peaceful life to get
more nice work that can actually support our life. Being the oldest brother to our
family I have a responsibility to help my parents and to get a job.
My parents decided to go to New Zealand because of the population in Britain and they
want a better future for us. There is a lot of opportunities in New Zealand
such as a lot of job entries better houses and good education.

The Next day my mother bought a ticket for us but we couldn't afford the
expensive rooms in Cabin so my mom bought the rooms in steerage. The rooms in
steerage have dirty, small spaces and small bedrooms
what we don't have a choice just to get that steerage to go to another country. There is a
lot of differences between steerage and cabin passengers. Cabin passengers
enjoyed more spaces, privacy, and
better food. Some cabin
passengers mingled with those on steerage that we really hate about. Steerage
passengers sleep in tiers of bunks. We were provided with bedding, but not bedding. Before we arrive
in New Zealand my mother told that I don't need to work anymore as
soon we arrive in New Zealand I and my
siblings can go to school and make a better future. The time we arrived in
New Zealand I feel safe and our lives change a lot.

Wood

In wood were doing some boomerang for about 2 weeks and some of us are done. Boomerang is some kind of toy that when you throw the toy it will back to you. First, we did some sketch before we cut it from the wood and put some designs on it. Second, we transfer the drawing to the wood so we know what size or how big we should cut on it. The last step is we put some designs on it with paint or we burn some of it to show the designs. Different types of boomerang :

Understanding stories

In English, we have been learning about Another world diversity. I think we are learning about this because we should learn about life that we don't know. Sometimes we should learn the Another world diversity so we know how to respect every culture around the world and traditions. Learning this topic is fun because I learned something that I haven't learn before it changes my perspective to others how I see other cultures in the world that every human is not same but we should treat everyone fairly.


10 stories:
