Women Suffrage / Script

Jack: Women first voted in the Maori Electorates on the 28th of November 1893, and the british colony of New Zealand were the ones who gave women the rights to vote. In 1893, September, Lord Glasgow signed a new electoral act that allowed women to vote, after many years of protesting the women must’ve been relieved.

Alex: New Zealand was the very first country to allow women to vote, after that other countries caught on with the idea and also allowed women to vote. Over a thousand people went to prison because of the suffragette movement, in the prison if they went on hunger strikes they’d be forcibly fed through a tube, most people didn’t fully recover from the treatment.

Nyjah: Kate Sheppard the light of New Zealand. Sheppard had many true facts on why parliament should let women vote. Parliament wouldn’t agree but after getting 400,000 signatures parliament thought to let women vote. 1914 when governments heard what Kate Sheppard had done, 28 more countries followed along and let women vote.    

Victoria: Parliament had granted women to vote in 1891 , 1892 and 1893 / 3 years. As you may know New Zealand is a very lucky country as they were the first to let women vote. How and why you may be asking well because of a very lucky women named Kate Sheppard. She found it hard to convince men to let women vote but she was still able to convince them.

Joseph: Woman didn’t win the right to vote argument until the World war one ended on the 11th of november 1918. The New Zealand’s world leadership in women's suffrage has become part of our national identity.

Maths art

L.I To make a reflective,rotated art work.
This week for art our maths group had to start painting,dyeing and pastel our patterns. The part I found hardest out of those to do was pastel. Why I choose pastel? Well the pastel wouldn't always stay in the line. But after all of that hard work I was able to glue and finish it ! Art this and last week was really fun and we had sometime to do something fun and do maths while we were at it.
