Yay or nei. Will you vote or not vote.

This term we have been focusing on the voting election. Our class (Room 4) Have been studying on the topic of political groups. We also studied the famous, the one and only, Kate Sheppard. Did you know that Kate was the very first women to think of the right to vote. And also added to that did you know that Kate Sheppard is also placed on the ten dollar note. Well, back to the election story. We had to split up into 4 different groups and those groups are: Kauri, Tawa, Rimu, and Totara. While we were in our political groups we got to do a whole lot of fun projects and activities, we also had to do little jobs to convince people at our school assembly to vote for a group. It was super fun. My group was Tawa. Fortunately we came second. Shilaine and Jontaye went around the whole school giving people voting sheets on the last day. Here are the results of the votiong election.
