The Christchurch tragedy

Our 2 minute silence on our community fun day

                  
                 Our special assembly 

Welcome back wonderful bloggers, on Friday 15th of March one of New Zealand's most saddest tragedies happened in the afternoon. For those of you that don't know what happened, there was a big mass shooting in Christchurch that killed 50 people. That cultures religion was Muslim and luckily the person that was shooting was arrested - hopefully for a life sentence. The shooters father had just died and so the person was somehow angry and started shooting because he didn't like the Muslim culture being in NZ, giving no one enough warning. All the local schools had to go on a 4 hour lock down. This also shows how rare this comes especially in New Zealand. School's all around should practise what to do in a lock down in case a tragedy happens again. As well as doing the special assembly we also did some reading activities that related to the shooting. We wish the people of Christchurch all the best. Here is a link to our reading work about the shooting. Sharing love, not hate! Blog ya later!! If you would like to see the Give a Little page click on this link to see how much has being raised!

We planed a special to remind us that no matter what
 our culture or raise is we are the same no matter what.

Here is some cards from us to send of to
the mosques that have been affected.
