Banning Slavery


I say we ban slavery, have you seen how slaves were treated, being a slave was a hard and miserable life to be in. Image you had a slave and you have been treating it badly and the slave finally gain it’s freedom and become a very successful person, and you went and ask for help to him/her, would you think him/her would want to help you, no cause how badly you have been treating it, and image how you would feel if you were separated from your family and would never see them again cause that’s how a slave feel like. We should be proud that we have a mother that would kiss you good night or a father who would read you bedtime stories before you went to sleep, because a slave didn't have that so we are very lucky. Slaves were treated like animals, no care, no love, no nothing just hatred.  We are so lucky that having slaves is banned, what if, just what if slavery wasn't banned and this mainly goes out to the girls and you were sold to a man image what the man would want you to do just image, pretty bad aye because people's attitude before was way better and different from attitudes nowadays. We shouldn't have slaves to do things for us, that’s why god gave us hands, legs and a body, to do things ourselves and you wouldn't wannabe a slave who would have to wrap the poo off someone’s bottom or bath a person or dress up someone cause I know I wouldn't want to. I've been a slave once and I know how it feels like to be one. People shouldn't be treated like slaves because we ain't animal we are human being and we have the right to be one.

Gospel College.

A group of students and teachers from Gospel College came to our school, to thanks ourselves for making the dream school come true. They preformed to us, and sang lots of Fijian songs. The students of Tamaki Primary enjoyed the performances, there was laughter and joy filled in the hall. They taught us games. We also got to know their names and get to know them well. They taught us how to speak some Fijian word.
