Summer Learning Journey: Week 2 Day 5

For this activity, please brainstorm at least five ways we could support the people who are affected by the fires in New South Wales, Australia. You could think of ways to raise money, things to send them, and ways to keep them feeling positive.

On your blog, share your brainstorm of ideas and create a video or audio recording of yourself explaining each idea.

I think we could raise money for people affected by the fires in Australia by:

- Starting online fundraisers.

- Sending over our own firefighters.

- Donating to online fundraisers.

- Doing garage sales or going to markets in order to raise money.

- Let Australians escaping from the fire take refuge in New Zealand.

For this activity, we would like you to follow in their footsteps and perform a random act of kindness.

On your blog, describe your random act of kindness. What did you do? How did the person react? How did it make you feel?

Whenever I stay over at my Granny's house, I always help out with taking the rubbish out, doing the dishes and other chores that she might want done. She's always happy that I'm helping out, I'm happy with doing a few chores here and there if it means she doesn't have to.

For this activity, choose one person and read all about them.

On your blog, provide us with:
The name of the person
A description of the work they do/have done
An explanation of how they/their work has had an impact on the lives of others

The person I chose is Kate Sheppard

She was a leader in the suffragette movement, whose goal was to bring women the same rights as men ie; voting. Her actions and the actions of the many suffragettes allow women these days to enjoy the exact same privileges as men.
